Getting to know Barbara Cowan
I believe in meeting clients exactly where they are in their life without judgment or preconceptions. My approach centers on active listening, encouraging personal narratives, and responding with genuine empathy. I create a safe space where you can explore your challenges and strengths at your own pace, but I'll also compassionately challenge perspectives when needed, helping you to move beyond resistance to discover new insights and possibilities. All interventions I use are evidence-based practices with proven effectiveness. You'll build on your inherent strengths, develop practical coping skills, and gain deeper self-awareness.
As your therapist, I'll ask thoughtful questions that help you determine your own path forward. While I might suggest techniques, offer role-playing exercises, or use assessments to evaluate progress, our work together will always be collaborative. Your goals and comfort level guide our sessions.
Whether you're returning to therapy after a break or exploring it for the first time, I'm here to support you in making meaningful changes in your life. My experience allows me to adapt my approach to your unique needs, drawing from DBT, CBT, person-centered therapy, mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing to learn what works best for you.
