Teri Hedman
Hello, my name is Teri Hedman and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I take a holistic approach to healing and I would love to partner with you on your journey. I value warmth and authenticity in my work. I hold an open, curious and non-judgemental stance with a healthy dose of compassion, and right use of humor. I strive to be honest and straightforward, which may mean saying the thing that is hard to hear. I don’t pretend to have all the answers or be the expert on your life. I’d like to support you in finding that wisdom inside yourself.
I believe whether or not we have a substance addiction, we all have something to “recover” from in the epic journey that is our life.
I believe that our struggles and our gifts are two sides to the same coin. The more “lead” we have, the more “gold” is possible to alchemize. I have walked my own path of healing and am driven to support others in finding the same liberation it provides.
First session
Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know each other and make sure working together is a fit for you. I will collect some history and get a sense of the larger “map” or “landscape” of your life so we can build out what your healing path may look like.
Strengths
I have a strong background in supporting folks navigating trauma and addiction. I believe whether or not we have a substance addiction, we all have something to “recover” from in the epic journey that is our life. I have found that in this process, we also can discover and reclaim our true selves and reorient to thriving in life. I also have specialized training focused on supporting women, especially in the postpartum period and other transitions of life.
Ideal clients
I do a lot of work with addiction and trauma, especially for women. I also have a focus on supporting women in the post partum period.
