Getting to know Dominique Wells
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. Therapy can feel difficult to start, so it is already amazing that you're on here. I aim to help people foster self-compassion and perseverance as they embark on their therapeutic journey. Collaboration is important, so you'll be included at each step of the way.
My approach
My approach isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach, as I know people are vastly different and require different things. Cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and compassion-focused therapy are the modalities that I utilize in treatment. Cultural awareness and competency are practiced while maintaining an inclusive environment.
My focus
My clinical expertise lies in eating disorders, body image issues, and self-esteem. I work with people struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, borderline personality disorder, and maternal mental health.
My communication style
My style is to have therapy flow more like a non-judgmental conversation while learning skills simultaneously. This adds to a more relaxed atmosphere where you can feel comfortable talking.
My journey to mental healthcare
Since my teenage years, I've known therapy was the career path for me. Often, there are people who get overlooked and don't receive the needed help. I wanted to change that. This led to years of schooling in psychology/counseling, which prepared me to work in this field. Working with many different clients and watching their transformations made it all worth it.
My goals for you
My objective isn’t to provide all the answers to my clients, but to provide adaptive coping skills for them to use to manage life stressors. We'll work together when creating goals and deciding how to accomplish them.
My first session with you
This is a chance for us to get to know each other and for you to get adjusted. We'll discuss what led you to therapy, your expectations, and goals. You don't have to feel pressured to speak on certain topics now.
