Mark Chaney-Gay

My communication style

While in session with me, you can expect a direct and empathetic approach. Sometimes we need someone to listen and not jump to solutions. Sometimes we need someone to sit with us in our thoughts and feelings. Other times, we need someone to be active and communicate. I believe in a mix of both in my therapeutic work with clients.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have personal and lived experience with foster care, disability, and being a member of the LGBTQ community. These experiences and identities led me to therapy. I have a belief that we can all live healthy and fulfilling lives. We all have strengths, dignity, and worth.

My goals for you

You are the expert in your experience and your goals. I will work with you to identify the most appropriate or important goal for our work, never forgetting that you and your goal are the focus.

Our first session

During our first session, you can expect an introduction to the therapeutic work. I am there to answer questions and help you explore if I am the right fit. I also complete an assessment to get a picture of your history, needs, and goals for our work.
