Tris Holaway
Whether you're navigating a marriage in crisis, grieving a loss, learning to live well with ADHD, or carrying the weight of trauma, I'll walk that road with you - grounded in the truth that healing is partly about gaining personal awareness and adding skills, and partly about letting go and accepting what is. I can assist with untangling which part goes where. My Approach My focus is helping you move out of pain and toward healing and wholeness as soon as possible. Anxiety, Depression, Grief, uncertainty, and disharmony in your closest relationships hurts and I work toward relieving symptoms first, then working on patterns and wounds that would keep the symptoms returning if not addressed.
First session
It will be an opportunity to share more about your initial concerns, and also answer any questions you may have about the process. I focus on understanding and communicating back to you what I hear you saying that you want to receive from therapy.
Strengths
I see each person as an individual with unique experiences and personal strengths. I am warm, creative, and intuitive, able to easily see patterns that might be running under the surface. I am a problem-solver and a strengths-finder. I embrace my role of making stuck points more visible and manageable for you.
Ideal clients
My ideal client is a seeker. They are seeking an idea, a tool, a different path, information, or a support person in order to feel, act, or understand better. They want a solution or a roadmap for their most challenging relationships and life struggles. Ideal conditions for health and well-being involve safe therapy relationships in which client's values, strengths, and goals are honored; and where client's pain points are witnessed clearly, validated, and resolved.
Treatment methods
Faith based therapy
I work to blend my clinical training and experience with my Christian faith and beliefs to offer you whole person growth and healing. If you choose to explore the layers of your story from a soul health perspective, I'm glad to filter that into the overall approach.
Attachment-based
Our earliest relationships shape how safe and connected we feel with others. This can be re-aligned for improved communication and safety in current relationships.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Find out what's already working and do more of it. Hope is not wishful thinking, but a grounded expectation that change is possible and probable.
Trauma Informed Care
I prioritize physical and emotional safety, and your sense of choice and control throughout our work together.
Gottman method
This method focuses on re-building the friendship, recognizing bids for connection, and eliminating the four marriage destroyers: criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling.
