Getting to know Tonya Agan

Counseling with the right therapist will improve your life and its trajectory. It is a wise step. As with hundreds before you, I will help you along your path, out of tough spots, and over time, I will give you the tools and skills to repair, prevent, and navigate future challenges. My approach For many years, I have assisted people through the toughest times of their lives, including grief, trauma, troubling family dynamics, as well as the darkness of addiction, depression, and overwhelming anxiety and emotional episodes. I have empowered hundreds of families struggling with behavioral issues that prevent peace in their homes. I use an outcome-based approach determined by what each client identifies as most important for their lives. The approaches used are based on what works best for each struggle. I am well-versed in dialectic, behavioral, and cognitive behavioral approaches, including behavioral therapy that addresses payoffs that maintain behavior. Change cannot occur, even with the best therapist, if the behavior's (and thought's, for that matter) payoffs are not addressed. I use the evidence-based approaches for each individual's issues, but notably, I use the techniques found effective through my work with others. At this point, I have honed my skills to improve the effectiveness of my work. I also work to provide comfort and proactive support by validating your feelings, by addressing dysfunctional patterns, and by acknowledging subtleties, including how you may inadvertently define yourself in ways not serving you. I work to improve your sense of self, problem-solving with you in areas influencing your mental health, and creating a new normal based on the vision and desires you have for your life. My focus I provide support in a safe, non-judgmental way. Many people get caught in the traps of anger, violence, addiction, inertia, messed-up patterns of communication with themselves and others, and the inability to get things done.
