“It was a pleasure working with Chetina. She supported students with emotional and behavioral disturbances.She created individualized 1:1 behavioral supports for students with unsafe and disruptive behaviors, interventions designed to prevent higher levels of placement. She worked closely with teachers/caregivers to improve students academic/mental health needs at school and at home. Through individual/group therapy Chetina met all student where they were at no matter the situation or circumstance, creating an environment where students felt safe expressing themselves and with social interactions”.

“Chetina is an incredible therapist. I’m a new client but I have already seen progress in myself and believe that I am on the path to improving my life. She meets me where I’m at while also challenging me to change negative behaviors and integrate positive practices and ways of thinking. I like the way she communicates with me.”

~ Satisfied Client

“Chetina has played a pivotal role in my healing journey. She has helped me overcome childhood and relationship trauma while equipping me with practical tools to manage triggers and foster self-love. What sets her apart is her attentive listening and her ability to make each therapy session about my unique needs and where I am at in that moment. Breaking the cycle of generational trauma is the greatest gift I can give myself and my daughter, and my therapist has been an invaluable guide on this path. I am deeply thankful for Chetina’s expertise and unwavering support.”
