THEY/THEM
My experience lies in helping children and families from diverse backgrounds navigate challenges in their lives and develop the skills they need to achieve their goals. I take a collaborative approach to therapy and have worked with clients with various diagnoses including ASD, ADHD, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, trauma, PTSD, and behavioral challenges. As a Black, Queer and Non-Binary therapist I know how important it is to validate your intersectional identities and create a space that is safe, affirming, and oriented to your needs.
Certifications: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, The Diagnostic Classification of Mental Health and Developmental Disorders of Infancy and Early Childhood.
Bridget
THEY/THEM
My focus is on helping individuals explore their worldview, strengths, and personal meaning. I value building a deeper understanding into one’s own worldview, strengths, and meaning. I acknowledge that everyone is the expert of their own lives and aim to collaborate with individuals to foster a space to connect to their personal abilities. I bring my own self into each session with transparency and compassion. I lead with curiosity, understanding, and most importantly, humor.I have a background in working with older adults and caregivers, Queer and Trans communities, and folks that engage in community organizing.
Certifications: Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
Values
Cultural awareness and inclusion
We seek to honor the intersectional identities of clients and their families. We want our work together to feel authentic to you and your cultural background and we are committed to learning how to do that.
Collaboration
We see our clients and ourselves as partners working together to forge a path toward healing. We aim to make our clients feel safe to work alongside us.
Integrity
It is of the utmost importance to us that we respect the space and time we share. We strive to always be honest, compassionate, trustworthy, reliable and follow the highest ethical standards.
Joy
We believe that therapy shouldn’t just be about solving problems; it’s about creating space for joy in your life even through difficult moments. We hope to make our sessions a time for you to play, laugh and feel free to explore and express yourself.
