Getting to know Tonette Kay Decker
Hi there, I'm Tonette Kay!
Hello! My name is Tonette Decker, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in helping clients with post-trauma symptoms, anxiety, and depression by utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach.
My approach
In addition to my primary modality of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I incorporate Solution-Focused Therapy, Humanistic, and Family Systems Therapy.
My focus
I work with adults, children, teens, and families to address relational conflicts, behavioral problems, and general family dysfunction. I support parents in better understanding the underlying causes of their children's maladaptive behaviors such as acting out, self-harming, and self-isolating.
My communication style
My therapy sessions offer a safe, non-judgmental, confidential, and encouraging environment. My goal in individual therapy is to help you gain healthy coping skills to heal from past traumas, manage stress and depressive symptoms, and maintain healthy relationships.
My journey to therapy
I grew up in a household with parents who were neglectful, abusive, and addicts. From a young age, I knew I could have benefited from someone providing guidance, support, and empathy during the most trying times in my life. Now, as an adult with more than 10 years of experience in the mental health field, I hope to be a source of support for clients, helping them process their experiences in a safe and non-judgmental environment. My hope is to empower my clients to make the best decisions for themselves so they can lead a life of purpose and happiness.
My goals for you
Clients’ goals are individualized and tailored to meet their current needs. Goal setting is a collaborative experience between myself and my clients. Goals are reviewed at every session and modified as needed.
