Getting to know Laverne Adams

Hi there, I'm Laverne! “Starting therapy can feel like a big step. I congratulate you on starting your journey, and I’m here to assist you on your recovery journey. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals. I welcome you to reach out whenever you feel ready to begin. I’m here to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can be yourself.” My approach “I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify and reshape negative thought patterns. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your unique needs, I adapt my approach to include practices like mindfulness and DBT skills. Your goals and progress are my primary focus. Together, we’ll identify challenges and work on strategies to help you move forward with confidence.” My focus “Have you been struggling with anxious or depressive thoughts or self-doubt? I work with individuals with learning ways to decrease anxious, depressive, and trauma symptoms, improve life transitions, and those seeking support for self-esteem issues. Whether you’re working through trauma, building coping skills, or exploring your personal goals, I’ll work with you to create a plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable.” My communication style “I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic partner. I use a conversational approach to therapy.” My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a deep conversation I had with an individual who wanted to harm themselves. I wanted to help others to help themselves and choose the path of becoming a therapist.
