Weaving through life can be so many things. It can be joyful, exciting, stressful, overwhelming, really whatever word we want to place to describe it. At some points in time it can be incredibly difficult. Everyone has their own unique experiences in life, struggles and obstacles are part of it. It can be overwhelming at times. Learning how to navigate through the more difficult times can be challenging but ultimately rewarding. My therapeutic approach is uniquely tailored to the client and collaborated with them based on their goals and experiences. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) we will explore your experiences and ignite change. Our work together will empower you to look within yourself, build acceptance, and better your relationship with yourself and with others. Therapy can be an uncomfortable and intimidating experience but it can also be very healing. I strive to make sure you feel accepted, heard, and validated in your experiences. When you are ready, give me a call to schedule our first session and we can embark on this journey together. If you see your insurance listed, please ask me to verify coverage when you arrange your first visit. Feel free to call or email me for a free 15 minute consultation

Hi, I’m Helena Chang, a second-year clinical master’s student of social work. My approach is all about understanding the “why” behind the challenges you’re facing. By exploring your environment, past experiences, and childhood, we’ll uncover patterns and gain insight into what’s shaping your thoughts and emotions. This self-awareness becomes the foundation for meaningful growth and change. Once we’ve built that understanding, we’ll work together to develop tools and skills that feel practical and empowering for you. I like to mix in strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to make sure we’re not just reflecting, but also taking action to help you feel more confident and in control. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and understood. We’ll work as a team to help you grow, heal, and move toward the life you want.

Too much stress can be overwhelming and will affect our concentration, stamina, and clarity of mind. The very nature of trauma is the experience of too much, a feeling of being overwhelmed. My specialty is in Creativity and Trauma and how one informs the other. This is not easy work, but it can be fun. We use what is called a Bottom Up approach, in combination with a Top Down. What this means is we learn to tune into our body brain and not just our head brain. As a Creative Arts psychotherapist and trauma specialist I've discovered ways to work that help you heal, feel better, and help you make more sense out of your life. When we meet first we find out what is going on, what has gone on, and how we want to use our time together. We can continue to talk; we may include some of the modalities in which I am trained (Art Therapy, EMDR...). It depends on what you are most comfortable with, and fits your particular issues and concerns Please know I am exclusively working online

Hello! I have over 20 years of experience working as a counselor and social worker and enjoy working with people of all ages. I employ techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy, tapping, and motivational interviewing to assist my clients. I have a strengths-based and trauma-informed approach. I believe in meeting people where they are at, and empowering them to do the things that they want to do, not the things others tell them they should be doing. Many of my clients have told me that I am easy to talk to, a good listener, and nonjudgmental. My communication during therapy is truthful and real. My tone and demeanor will fit what you need - some people desire a soft and gentle tone, and some people want to get straight to the point. I believe that it is important to hear a person's story and understand what their goals are before beginning any treatment. In our first session, we will talk about why you came to counseling and what you hope to achieve while meeting with me. I'd like to hear from you if you think we might be a good fit. I am part of the Path referral network, which means that when you reach out, my team will get back to you quickly to schedule our first session. I am committed to making therapy affordable. Through Path, I am in-network for most commercial insurances, so you're only responsible for your co-pay!
