LCMHC, 9 years of experience
Hello. Are you stressed, stuck, and struggling? Do you feel disconnected from others and as if your life is just passing you by? Have you recently gone through a life transition that literally almost took you out mentally? I'm Tonya T, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with a passion for helping individuals break free from the shadows of depression and anxiety, navigate life's challenging transitions, and discover their path to personal growth and fulfillment. I work with individuals who are tired of stagnation and recognize that there is a next level in life for them to attain. I specialize in creating a safe and empathetic space where you can explore your feelings, challenge negative thought patterns, and develop practical coping strategies. Together, we'll work to alleviate your emotional suffering and reignite your zest for life. I'm dedicated to helping you break free from stagnation, rediscover your passions and purpose, and set achievable goals for your future. Let's explore your inner strengths and resources to reignite your motivation and drive. I am THAT therapist who believes in movement. Talk soon!
In our first session together, we will use the time to determine your needs and build a rapport. You will be able to ask questions as I take the time to work on a treatment plan for the journey ahead.
I am eclectic in my evidence-based therapy approaches and look forward to developing a strong therapeutic alliance. I use skills within the following modalities: CBT, Solution-Focused, Gestalt, and DBT.
My biggest strengths are rapport building, active listening, and motivation. I work best with individuals who are ready for change and looking for actual solutions to improve their situation. I get energized by those who are stuck in a rut, grieving over loss, battling with depression, beaten down by under-achieving behaviors, and desperately seeking to discover their authentic self. Is that you?
