Tonya Bradshaw

My communication style

With my clients, I strive to create an environment where they feel safe and accepted. I want you to be free to share without shame or judgment.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a therapist was a purpose and call. While unemployed, a mentor suggested I go to school for counseling. She saw some things in me I didn't see. I spoke with an advisor, reviewed the degree plan, and I was sold.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting with you using prompts to get you to share about what it is you want.

Our first session

The first session is to build rapport and strengthen the therapeutic relationship. I may ask what it is that brings you to counseling. Was it your idea, or did someone suggest you come?
