Getting to know Ava Baker
Hi there, I'm Ava!
I recognize that starting therapy can be difficult. Congratulations on taking this first step. I believe everyone can gain control of their life, manage stressors, and reach out for help when needed. I work with adolescents and adults dealing with life transitions, anxiety, depression, and grief.
My focus
I work with adolescents, teenagers, and adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Dealing with life transitions and phases of life can affect everyone, including "more mature" adults. My goals are to assist with create goals to improve daily life and the upcoming years.
My approach
I utilize a wide range of therapeutic techniques. These include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, recognizing that change comes from within.
My communication style
Communication is vital in all relationships, and listening is its most important aspect. I strive to be an empathetic and compassionate listener so I can help you process thoughts and behaviors and create strategies for a healthier state of being. You can expect a warm, nonjudgmental space where your voice is heard.
My journey to mental healthcare
I became a therapist after experiencing significant life struggles, including loss and raising a special needs child. Through these experiences, I developed a deep desire to help others find peace and happiness. My greatest reward is seeing clients gain skills to live fully today, plan for tomorrow, and love themselves.
My goals for you
My approach includes working with you to address your struggles and create goals that decrease problems. I believe empowering you to develop and use these strategies gives you lifelong skills to manage challenges as they arise. Together, we'll build your confidence and resilience.
