Getting to know Wanda Russell

I am a dedicated and compassionate licensed therapist with two decades of experience supporting individuals on their journey to emotional well-being. I hold a Master of Science degree in clinical counseling. Whether clients are trying to manage relationships, addiction, or areas of stress or anxiety, I use a holistic approach. I am here for other areas of life changes including chronic pain, health conditions, trauma, end of life, and more. Some of my strengths are in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), and mindfulness-based interventions, tailoring my approach to best fit each client’s unique needs. My passion is partnering with clients in recognizing their strengths and developing skills to live an improved quality of life, especially with those who are dealing with chronic health conditions and/or chronic pain. I believe the counseling relationship is most important. Clients embrace the process if they feel safe to talk about hard topics and share thoughts and feelings they do not want others to know. Feeling safe to share and not feeling judged allows therapy to work. Starting this counseling foundation is my priority in the first session.
