Kristy L. Bazzanella
Licensed Professional Counselor
·MA, LPC, CCTP, RPTAbout
As a client-centered, solution focused counselor, I seek to assist people in finding their own internal strengths so that clients can determine solutions to their problems. I utilize a combination of therapeutic approaches including cognitive-behavioral therapy, experiential, expressive arts and play therapy. I strive to match the treatment approach to individual problems. Together I work with my clients to help them achieve personal growth and meet treatment goals. I offer a highly personalized, supportive approach that helps clients live happy, healthy and productive lives. I am a certified trauma professional, a registered play therapist, an EMDR practitioner, and use an ecclectic approach to helping people regain a feeling of wholeness. My clinical work is informed by my life experiences. I am excited to begin our journey together. Take the first step towards a life worth living. I'm an email away. Life is sometimes difficult and often we need someone to be with us as we encounter difficulties. I have been there and can help you feel better. If you need someone to talk to, to be a support, contact me by phone or email. **Specialties:** I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter." **Credentials & Experience:** Kristy is a certified EMDR Certified Therapist, Registered Play Therapist, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Expressive Arts Depth Work, and ego state therapy using the Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy(helps to heal stuck child parts).
"I use an eclectic blend of therapy techniques, and this is what you will experience: a warm blend of talk therapy, expressive arts, EMDR, mindfulness, and brain-based approaches. Sessions feel grounding and supportive as we gently untangle what's overwhelming, build practical skills, and help you feel more calm, confident, and connected to yourself."
