Hi there! My name is Gardenia and I am a therapist with several years of experience working in crisis intervention with individuals of various ages and cultural backgrounds. My approach to therapy is tailored to the unique needs of each client. I work to develop a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship, helping my clients build new coping skills while leveraging their existing strengths. I work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, job stress, relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma, and PTSD. I also have experience supporting those who have experienced child abuse or neglect. Additionally, I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist. My communication style is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental. I aim to create a space where you feel heard, validated, and empowered to make positive changes in your life. My goal is to help guide and support you on a journey of self-discovery, healing, and growth. While change can be challenging at times, it can also be incredibly beautiful and rewarding. I am here to walk alongside you, offering my expertise and compassion every step of the way.
