Getting to know Chardonnay Badchkam

Everyone makes mistakes. Rather than judging yourself harshly for making them, let's help you learn from them. The goal is to seek mindfulness by bringing processes that you are unaware of to the surface, then help you get into the driver's seat of your emotions rather than letting your emotions drive you out of control. I hold a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University, which equips me to guide you through this journey with understanding and expertise.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use a Psychoanalytic approach which basically means a kind of talk therapy that explores things you may be doing unconsciously, which may have a significant impact on the way you feel and behave. Some of these unconscious things may have led you to seek help, as you are aware of a problem, but not quite sure how you got to that point.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

First we'll start by ensuring that you feel heard and I want to make sure I can get a clear understanding of your situation so, that I can help you to the best of my ability. Then we can work together to develop your treatment plan and understanding your goals for treatment. The work that we will be doing thereafter will be helping you gain insight into your behaviors and ease you into the delicate process of helping you express how you are feeling. All of this is done with empathy, patience, and care. Providing an environment in which you feel safe.
