Hi there, I'm Teja!
The Serenity Prayer stays near my heart as it has helped me remain resilient during my personal times of hardship: accepting what I cannot change, finding courage to change what I can, and seeking wisdom to know the difference.
My focus
As a former foster child who entered foster care and aged out, I have a passion for serving children and adolescents who have similar experiences.
My approach
The therapeutic approaches I utilize include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye-Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solutions-Focused Therapy (SFT).
