About me
At Farria Consultant & Community Resources LLC, we provide professional services and tools to assist clients, experiencing emotional and mental health challenges by linking them to resources within their community. We have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief, alcohol/ drug addiction, Suicidal, and homicidal Ideation.
The ability to cope with life's stressors can make or break you mentally." Because of this, I want to make it my life mission to raise mental health awareness but also execute the Cognitive Processing Therapy approach to help clients work through the problems that led them to seek assistance. With God’s grace and guidance, you will gain insight, learn new skills, and find strategies that will move you toward change and growth. I believe that it takes courage to reach out for help, and I will honor the bravery that you have shown to take the next step.
Farria Consultant & Community Resource Group was created to raise awareness and break the stigma around mental health issues in my community while getting people the help they need. My own experiences with anxiety, loss, and trauma all contribute to my caring, compassionate, and personalized approach to therapy. I also believe that every behavior has a purpose and a payoff. If we can understand what drives the behavior, then we can begin to work on strategies that will develop new skills to help each client
