Hi! My name is Acelli. I am a therapist in Cedar Park who works with teens and adults with anxiety, toxic relationships, generational trauma or life transitions. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all method of therapy, so we'll work together to meet your needs. Therapy starts inward, with self-acceptance, making space for positive connections with self and others. Reach out today!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session usually involves relationship building. There's time for both of us to ask questions as well as for me to learn a little about what your therapy needs and goals are. As a therapist, my work begins inward through self-acceptance, identifying ineffective behaviors, and embracing positive connections with self and others. Working through depression, anxiety, and stress is and looks different for each of us. My role is a supportive one as you grow and reach your goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Like everyone else, I’m human and no different from the clients I see. I’ve been through both wonderful and difficult experiences that have shaped who I am and how I help. People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can be fully present for people’s stories, even if they are difficult stories. If you open up to me, I will not think anything is wrong with you, I will think you are unique and human. Many of my clients have had the same fear (that people would think they are crazy). You have nothing to be ashamed about. Nothing you can say will cause me to judge you. I know we all have our strengths and weaknesses; we might be emotionally drained from the ups and downs, we are humans trying to human. Whatever it is you’re going through, I will do my best to provide a safe space where you can feel heard and supported without judgement.
