Teresina Hone
My name is Teresina and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. Do you feel stuck in your relationships?
I'm open to trying most things, but more importantly, I want to find the right modality that works for you and your unique situation.
Do you feel so anxious or depressed that daily life seems like a chore? Have you suffered a traumatic experience that has left you with nightmares, flashbacks, hypervigilance, and/or distrust? Are you a member of the LGBTQ+ community looking for support and validation from a therapist that understands you? If so, I'm the therapist for you. I have worked in the mental health field for 15 years. I specialize in trauma, Intimate Partner Violence survivors, sexual assault survivors, adolescents, young adults, depression, anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues, PTSD, life changes, relationships, and I have experience with just about anything else under the sun. I utilize a client-led pathway to therapy, and want to give you the tools and space you need to heal and grow. I offer various treatment modalities including but not limited to Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative therapy and more.
First session
In the first session clients should get a feel for how therapy with me will work, what modalities will be used, and general rapport building.
Strengths
My biggest strengths are definitely trauma treatment, LGBTQ+ issues, and woman empowerment. All of those issues are important to me and should be more important to the world at large.
Ideal clients
LGBTQ+, women, adolescents, young adults, elder adults, those that have suffered trauma, sexual assault survivors, and domestic violence survivors.
Treatment methods
EMDR
Primarily used for trauma treatment, but can be useful in other instances client permitting.
Gender-affirming therapy
People that are questioning their gender identity find themselves in a unique place where they feel like no one understands them. Together we can dive into the ways this affects you personally, as well as tackle the societal aspects that come along with it.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is useful to help challenge and change beliefs that can be maladaptive.
Eclectic
I firmly believe in finding the best modality for the client, and I am open to most modalities.
