Adrienne Marshall

My communication style

I strive to create an environment that feels calming, therapeutic, safe, and nonjudgmental. I believe that the client is the expert on their lives, and therefore, I also strive to make sure that the client feels comfortable expressing what works and what doesn't. Working with me should feel safe and comforting.

My journey to mental healthcare

My desire to become a therapist came from a need to have better communication and functioning within my own family growing up. I wanted to be in a position to help others towards the goal of processing hurt and pain from trauma, to create functional lives and family dynamics, to better communicate, and to better understand brain functioning.

My goals for you

During the intake session, I explain the treatment plan process and discuss with the client what they want to accomplish most during therapy. After intake, the treatment plan is created with those goals, which are then reviewed and progress is measured throughout treatment.

Our first session

During the first session, the client should expect to take part in the intake process, which includes questions about their background, treatment history, health and family history, trauma history, and goals for therapy. This process structures treatment and ensures therapy is tailored to the client.
