Tricia Ames

My communication style

I strive to create an empathetic, compassionate, and professional space with a focus on understanding and supporting clients without judgment. My goal is to create a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and accepted. I pride myself on my personable and professional approach that allows trust to build, healing, and clients to feel empowered.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist to support and empower children, teens, and adults through life's challenges. Helping others heal, grow, and build stronger relationships drives my passion for this work. I believe in the intrinsic worth of each individual and that growth and change are always possible.

My goals for you

I take great pride in offering a strength-based approach, where I focus on the strengths of the client to build confidence and resilience. It is essential to approach goals in therapy with a focus on individualized growth. This means creating objectives that consider each client’s individual needs, strengths, and challenges.

Our first session

At your first session, expect a welcoming and supportive environment where I will ask you questions to help me understand your background, concerns, and goals for therapy. It’s a chance for you to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with. This session is about gathering information and building rapport.
