Gillian Travis, MSEd, Resident in Counseling
I recognize that therapy can be overwhelming whether it be your first time or your 10th time. In my sessions I emphasize the importance of the counseling relationship fostered through trust and mutual collaboration. This is the client’s journey that I have the privilege to help along. Our initial sessions will focus on the establishment of goals as well as identifying what needs to be addressed first to guide our path forward. In this process I want clients to ask any and all questions as I believe knowledge is power and they are entitled to all information regarding their treatment.
I am a masters prepared resident in counseling with prior experience in crisis care at an inpatient setting. I utilize a humanistic and person-centered approach with a trauma informed emphasis. I incorporate the use of multiple directive modalities such as CBT and DBT to best address my client’s individual and unique needs. I believe in the human spirit and our innate ability to heal and grow. With that I have the firm belief that healing is for all and hope to achieve a more genuine and fulfilling state of living for my clients.
