Tia Wilson
Allowing clients to explore and gain tools and resources to live their best life is the privilege I have as a therapist. I have worked with children, adolescents and adults to help them engage in meaningful change. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health, aiming for overall wellness and balance. Healing doesn’t just happen in conversation; it happens in the nervous system, in your breath, your presence. I am passionate about giving people tools to thrive and manage anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and other areas that can cause us to pause in our lives. My focus is to help individuals to see hope and find joy amidst the day-to-day struggles and challenges. My goal is to move you toward a place of calm, clarity and confidence.
First session
Therapy is a personal journey and an initial session will always begin with a safe, welcoming environment. We will explore your needs and goals for therapy, ensuring sessions meet your needs. My goal is for you to leave with a foundation of trust in me and the process. I aim to hold non-judgmental space where you can feel seen, safe, and respected.
Strengths
My background in trauma therapy and school-based counseling, gives me a systems perspective that allows me to support clients within their environment focusing on things within their control, including setting boundaries and finding balance within their total system. I want to help you tolerate discomfort, rediscover your values and build a life aligned with what matters most.
Ideal clients
I have worked with children, adolescents and adults to help them engage in meaningful change and welcome clients of all ages. I thrive in helping clients navigate life transitions to get to a better place than they were before. I believe in the innate strength within each of us to work toward change and am honored for individuals to trust me in this process.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use cognitive behavioral therapy to work with clients to better understand their thinking patterns and belief systems that shape how they feel and act. Empowering clients to create new healthy patterns and explore coping strategies that fit with their lifestyle is a passion of mine.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I enjoy arming clients with DBT strategies to enable them to infuse practical strategies immediately into their lives to see change.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness is an evidence-based approach to total well being that can be beneficial for all clients.
Strength-Based
I come to all clients with a strength-based approach to counseling, harnessing the capabilities and unique traits of each individual.
