Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session together, clients can expect a warm and welcoming environment where they can openly share their concerns and goals. We'll start by discussing their reasons for seeking therapy and what they hope to achieve. I'll take the time to listen attentively, ask relevant questions to gain a deeper understanding of their situation, and collaboratively establish a plan for moving forward. Clients can expect to feel heard, validated, and supported as we begin our therapeutic journey together. Additionally, we'll discuss confidentiality, the therapeutic process, and any questions or concerns they may have about therapy.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

In my practice, I prioritize identifying and leveraging my clients' strengths while tailoring treatment to meet their unique needs. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Parent-Child Psychotherapy, and Alternatives for Families Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (AF-CBT). I generally use interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Focused, and Strategic approaches. Additionally, I utilize a diverse range of therapeutic modalities, including but not limited to Attachment-based, Client-Centered, Coaching, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Culturally Sensitive, Holistic Interpersonal, Mindfulness-Based, Motivational Interviewing, Multicultural, Narrative, Object Relations, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Psychoanalytic, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Solution-Focused, and Structural Family Therapy. By drawing from this comprehensive toolkit, I aim to provide personalized and effective interventions that support my clients' growth and well-being.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my ability to cultivate a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their challenges and vulnerabilities. I excel in building strong therapeutic alliances based on empathy, trust, and collaboration. My extensive experience and training enable me to tailor therapy approaches to meet each client's unique needs, fostering meaningful progress and growth. Additionally, my commitment to ongoing learning and professional development ensures that I stay current with best practices and evidence-based interventions, allowing me to provide the highest quality of care to my clients.

Dr. Gaffney got right to the core of the issues I am facing. She was warm, polite and supportive and made me feel like I was not alone in my struggle. She gave me great advice and called out patterns from my responses right away, illuminating some blind spots that I didn’t recognize and helped me untangle them. Looking forward to the next session

This being my first delve into personal improvement through assistance, Tricia is the breath of reinsurance and clarity that I needed. Learning more about myself and learning more about my thought process has given me a reprieve from the anxiety I feel at times and the uneasiness of the world I have to deal with.

She is amazing! Have only had a couple sessions but I have searched for a therapist for a year and none were the right fit. So happy to have found her!
