Rotunda Gorman
As a mental health therapist, I have worked with veterans who have mental disorders, individuals from all populations experiencing substance use disorders, along with PTSD, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma, and grief.
I have experience working with veterans and substance use, and mental health challenges.
My impact lies in providing compassionate, evidence-based care, helping clients build resilience, develop coping skills, restore hope, and achieve stability so they can lead healthier, more meaningful lives.
First session
Clients can expect a relaxed, supportive first session where we begin building rapport and trust. We will discuss their concerns, explore history, and identify treatment goals. You’ll have space to share at your own pace, ask questions, and begin feeling understood, supported, and comfortable. I will listen without judgment, guide the process, and help you feel safe, respected, and comfortable sharing.
Strengths
My strength as a therapist comes from my compassion, empathy, and commitment to meeting clients where they are. I have experience working with veterans and substance use, and mental health challenges. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space, helping clients feel heard, build trust, and develop meaningful coping skills. I use evidence based strategies to guide clients through mental health challenges.
Ideal clients
I am best positioned to support individuals who are navigating life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and a desire for deeper self-understanding. This includes young adults and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, stress, identity exploration, relationship challenges, or feelings of being stuck in their personal lives. I am especially drawn to working with clients who are motivated for growth even if they feel uncertain about where to begin. Many of the people I would serve may appear high-functioning on the outside but, internally, struggle with self-doubt, overthinking, or difficulty managing their emotions.
Treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I use the treatment method used to treat anxiety, depression, and addiction by promoting values-driven action over avoidance
