Hicks Barbara

My communication style

I prioritize clear and open communication to foster a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I actively listen and offer you the space to reflect on your experiences, standing beside you as an empathetic partner. In the face of challenges, you can rely on me to remain calm and patient.

My journey to mental healthcare

My therapy journey began with curiosity about human resilience and a desire to help others discover their strength facing life's hardest challenges. I am motivated by the belief that everyone possesses potential for positive growth and change. Witnessing clients gain confidence or find peace makes my work rewarding.

My goals for you

I believe that therapy is a partnership. Together, we'll identify and set meaningful goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem, or achieving another personal objective. I'm here to provide the support and tools you need to move closer to your desired outcomes.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We'll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy. It's completely normal to feel nervous about your first appointment. Therapy is a process, and we'll continue to build our work together over time.
