Hello! My name is Dr. Tomlin, and I am a licensed and nationally certified professional counselor and traumatologist. I specialize in various modalities, including strength-based coaching, existentialism, multicultural awareness, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I am passionate about helping others achieve social, emotional, and behavioral improvements and providing them with the fundamental tools to overcome life struggles so they can prosper. Life is full of obstacles and difficult circumstances, which can feel overwhelming and all-consuming. Navigating these unique, daily challenges can be isolating, leaving you second-guessing everything and spiraling with sadness, frustration, and exhaustion.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, expect a warm and welcoming space to share your story. We'll discuss your goals, challenges, and what you hope to achieve. I'll provide an overview of how I work and answer any questions you may have about the therapeutic process. Together, we'll establish a comfortable foundation and outline a personalized plan to guide our journey forward. Your first session is about setting the stage for positive change and ensuring you feel supported and understood.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a provider lie in my unique blend of qualifications, experiences, and a deeply personal journey. With an Ed.D in Community Care Counseling and a master's degree in School and Mental Health Counseling from the University of Pennsylvania, I bring a robust educational background to my practice. My certifications in professional life and business coaching showcase a multifaceted skill set. My diverse professional journey, from mental health agencies and hospitals to school counseling, reflects a comprehensive understanding of individual and organizational needs. My specialization in strength-based coaching, existentialism, trauma, multicultural awareness, and cognitive behavioral therapy demonstrates my versatile approach to addressing various aspects of clients' lives. What truly sets me apart is my global perspective, having delivered counseling services to clients across different continents. My proficiency in multicultural counseling therapy reflects a deep understanding of diverse cultural backgrounds. This breadth of experience uniquely positions me to connect with a wide range of clients and provide tailored, effective support on their journeys to well-being and success. On a personal note, I've overcome a rough upbringing with over 14 foster homes before the age of 10, finding healing through my own therapy journey. This transformative experience is what inspired me to become a traumatologist, driven by the desire to offer the same healing to others facing their own challenges.
