Emphasizing uniqueness, I utilize an integrative approach in your treatment through the use of various modalities while applying diverse techniques and interventions. This will help you become more in touch with your whole self and recover from any trauma or adverse life experiences and the psychological distress produced by it. Beginning therapy is like commencing a journey within oneself, and it is essential to find the therapist that is right for you to assist you along the way. You already possess the innate wisdom to help resolve maladaptive patterns, behaviors, and relationships that are creating obstacles in reaching your full potential and self-realizing. The therapeutic process will assist you in obtaining your goals and living a healthy, fulfilling life. Because I believe we are mind, body, and soul, I have a holistic approach in my practice. We are each unique individuals with different problems, needs and wants and therefore require a personalized and individualized treatment to resolve symptoms and conflicts. Through life's struggles and moments of darkness, we are given the gift of strength, resilience, and the opportunity to better understand our genuine selves.

Jessica Furland
Having a comfortable and relaxed partnership with your therapist is so important when exploring the raw parts of ourselves. We often keep these tender sides hidden and experience shame that we don’t “have it all together.” In order to feel ready to illuminate issues that need attention, we must be able to deeply trust the person doing that work by our side. I’m compassionate, non-judgmental, real and a little messy – like all humans! I’ve been there too! While I’m learning about what makes you unique, I’ll draw upon evidence-based therapeutic modalities that have been proven to be effective in lessening suffering and formulating new habits. When we have healthier ways of interpreting emotions and behavior patterns, our relationships improve, not only with others but also with ourselves.

Judith Bordeaux
My therapeutic approach is person-centered, where I utilize empathy, authenticity, acceptance, and trust in welcoming my clientele into a safe space. These principles have been the driving force of my practice for nearly 14 years. My approach allows my clients the opportunity to find their authentic selves. These therapeutic principles fit well with my other personal values and qualities of compassion, integrity, courage, gentleness, curiosity, and reflection. You can expect to interact with those pieces of me throughout our sessions, along with my humor, creativity, playfulness, preparedness to sit with emotions, and interest in living a more fulfilled, enjoyable life. In my practice, I have been fortunate enough to gain training in many modalities. I have acquired my skills with a more in-depth understanding and approach through running CBT, DBT, Body image, Emotional Awareness, and Authentic Self groups. This rich exposure to many different interventions has prepared me to utilize my eclectic approach with my mindfulness guidance in all of my sessions with my clients.

Kayleigh Swetland
I come from a trauma-informed theoretical orientation. I believe that attachment is often the root of many challenges. I work from a cognitive-behavioral lens with a narrative approach. I am informed by psychodynamic and social-emotional developmental models (Piaget, Erickson, Freud, Maslow). I also use techniques and interventions integrating art, worksheets, media, and psychoeducational books or articles. I have training in motivational interviewing, adoption competency certification, ASIST suicide training, cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, psychodynamic, art, and narrative therapies. Ultimately though, rapport and relationship are the building blocks of a strong therapeutic alliance and identifying the client’s theory of change and providing treatment through the lens that they most identify with is the approach I take and why I have an eclectic therapeutic repertoire.
