I have worked with the spectrum of mental illnesses focusing on trauma, crisis intervention, depression, anxiety and gender dysphoria.
I'm Listening Counseling Services PLLC is run by Viola. I provide mental health therapies to individuals ages 12 and up (ages under 12, please email me). I provide a non-judgmental, empathetic, compassionate safe space, where therapy is designed specifically for the unique individual. I focus on the whole person with support of evidence based approaches.
I work with teens (12+) and adults who are struggling with maintaining a healthy mental balance. I support symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, gender dysphoria, as well as working with neurodivergence issues such as symptoms of ADHD and high-functioning autism spectrum disorder. I am a member of the queer community and support all identities.
Therapy should be supportive, fun, and effective. Change can be scary, but it is less scary when you are working with someone who believes in you and can support you in a healthy, creative, and cohesive way. I look forward to meeting you and joining you on your journey.
