My goal as a therapist is to help you reach your fullest potential. I specialize in therapeutic interventions which help alleviate your emotional challenges. I create awareness through an integrative approach utilizing a variety of modalities that best fit your needs. I love working with children, teens, & adults! I treat clients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, low self-esteem, parenting concerns, relationship issues & infidelity. I utilize CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Strength Based, and Trauma Focused strategies to help clients meet their treatment goals.

We all want to live healthy, engaged lives of meaning and value. As we live, negative events occur which can lead to use feeling "stuck" and miserable. However, I believe that one can choose to live differently, that change can occur for anyone regardless of your age, problems, or circumstances. Therapy with me involves engaging in a meaningful conversation with each other in a safe environment. Part of this change occurs in our establishment of a collaborative relationship emphasizing respect and authenticity. In therapy, we will explore strengths, values, ways of thinking, expression of emotion, and behaving in healthy ways.

Hi there! I'm Tedra, a licensed professional counselor. Choosing the right therapist is important and can often times be scary! Therapy is a journey and who you choose to embark on that journey with is important. I am extremely passionate about helping others and providing a safe space for you to learn, grow, and heal. I have years of experience counseling adults (especially military veterans) on a variety of issues, including but not limited to; depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction and recovery, and adjustment issues related to everyday life changes.

My goal is to support you during your journey to grow and heal from experiences that are impacting your ability to be the healthiest version of you. I strive to provide an environment that is open, safe, and tailored to your unique needs. I will assist you to find solutions and see results that make meaningful differences in your life. I want you to feel a sense of relief and freedom as you improve your understanding of how the choices you make impact your sense of self, your relationships, and the way you view life.

My approach to counseling has been to build mutual trust with my clients, in order to help them identify their inner strengths, followed by them using those strengths to overcome life’s negative experiences.  I am passionate about working with minority clients because I understand the sensitive and uncomfortable nature that comes with asking for help. I enjoy collaboratively dismantling the expectations and pressures that clients carry to be strong and have it all together.

If you are struggling with feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or experiencing increased life stressors due to work, family or other responsibilities, psychotherapy can help. Strengthening your interpersonal, behavioral and relational strategies will bring you relief. Together, we will explore how the complex patterns of your experiences are affecting your current life challenges, emotions, and behaviors. Whether working with children, adolescents, teens or adults, my approach is to be compassionate and attuned to your unique set of needs, providing a space for you to feel understood, appreciated and learn self-acceptance, ultimately achieving more effective strategies for dealing with life's stressors.

For the last 20 years, I have worked in social services providing therapy and support in schools, community mental health agencies, and psychiatric hospitals. I focus on my clients' strengths. I pride myself in the ability to make my clients feel understood and motivated. My goal is to provide a supportive, safe place to help my clients find solutions to their problems. I often incorporate art, storytelling, music, and movement in my sessions to make therapy relaxing and comfortable. I believe in meeting my clients where they are and offering a non-judgmental attitude.

Donna aligns closely with Adlerian, Cognitive behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral therapy. Adlerian theory has been shown in research for treating multiple mental health conditions: anxiety, depression, grief, eating disorders, personality disorders, schizophrenic, and substance abuse disorders. Adlerian theory suggests that people are driven by a need to feel that they matter, and they belong. How do you want to grow as a person, what are your dreams and goals? Donna is passionate about offering a non-judgmental, supportive environment to men, women, couples and children; ages four and up.

We provide evidence-based CBT/Exposure Therapy for anxiety disorders, specializing in social anxiety, selective mutism, separation anxiety, panic disorder, & related issues. The goal is to live a valued life in the presence of anxiety and, to do this, we treat the anxious-avoidance cycle you may find yourself in. Anxious avoidance is when a person avoids something that makes them anxious (which is normal and expected). However, when avoidance interferes with your life and keeps you from living out your goals, that’s when avoidance (not anxiety) becomes problematic. We are specialists who can help you learn how to approach vs avoid.

And, we will work side-by-side with you, your child or spouse, to help reach understanding, strengthen resilience and experience hope. Please see our services to see how our team of clinical psychologists can help you.

I aim to help children, adolescents, and adults navigate family conflict issues, trauma, mood disorders, grief, loss, relational distress, life transitions, and stress management challenges. Healing and growth take place in the context of relationships, and together we will build one based on warmth, trust, and authenticity. My goal in every session is to provide a safe space of support and encouragement to help you become aware of who you are, what you want, where you are heading, and what is getting in your way. Together we will work to help you discover your strengths and develop skills to achieve your goals.
