Hello, there! I'm Tonya Are you struggling with feelings of inadequacy, difficulty with making everyday decisions, or a loss rather it be a person, career, marriage or a traumatic event? Clarity – We all want it – it’s a fundamental human need and together we can work towards gaining perspective and balance. I desire to create a safe, non-judgmental, and inviting space for clarity, hope and healing. For the last twenty-plus years, I have had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, and adults in community mental health settings as a social worker. I am passionate about helping individuals and together, we can identify what's not working, find clarity, and a sense of hope and get you back to balance!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Seeking therapy can be scary but you're taking the first step towards clarity. The most important aspect of the therapeutic connection is building a warm, genuine, non-judgmental relationship. As your therapist, that is my goal. I believe when people sense that you genuinely care and respect them, they are more open to honestly sharing about themselves and participating in the process of change.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
My approach to therapy is collaborative, strength-based, and eclectic, utilizing a variety of evidence-based practices tailored to the needs of each client. Every client is unique, the variety might include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Trauma Focused-CBT, and Mindfulness to name a few.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
In our sessions together, I will meet you with compassion, empower you to trust yourself and we will work together to create an individualized action plan to achieve your desired goals and sense of purpose. Let's work together!
