TW: Nongraphic mention of su***de

While this can be a difficult topic to cover it's important. Take some time to learn a little mental health first aid with us!

If you find you or loved one are struggling we encourage you to reach out, call the National Crisis Hotline at 988, or check our crisis resources post in our bio. If it's an emergency we implore you to call emergency services or head to the nearest emergency room.

Meet Anshika, one of our new Associate Counselors here at Brave Talk!

Anshika takes a person-centered, holistic approach to therapy. Change starts with you, but Anshika will act as a guiding light- walking beside you through your journey. She often combines traditional talk therapy with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), challenging you to deepen your insight and self awareness while maintaining a warm and nonjudgmental environment. Her clinical interests include play therapy, identity development, and fostering emotional growth through creative and collaborative approaches. Outside of work, Anshika loves spending time with friends and family, completing way too many arts and crafts, watching movies and listening to music!

Welcome Back to one of our associate counselors, Devorah!

Devorah believes clients heal when they have an empathetic, supportive, and nonjudgmental space to process their experiences—one that allows them to face challenges, make sense of them, and see a path toward meaningful change. Rooted in psychodynamic theory, Devorah integrates elements from CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, and more to meet her client's needs. Outside of work, Devorah's very busy with her kids! But when she can find the time, she loves to hang out with friends, read, travel, and try out new recipes.

Meet Deanna, one of our associate counselors!

Deanna believes therapy should be a space that is safe, welcoming, and supportive for clients, no matter differences in gender, culture, sexuality, and more. She believes change occurs when clients feel they are being heard, understood, and met with empathy. Deanna's approach is strengths-based and collaborative, employing a mix of Motivational Interviewing, CBT, and DBT techniques. Outside of the office Deanna loves to spend time with her partner and cats, read, and explore the city with friends.

Onward and Upward! For those not in the know, we sent Tania off this past Thursday with a Fond Farewell. Tania has always been an explorer at heart- and we'll miss her energy here at Brave Talk.

Stay tuned- as while we're saying goodbye to one friend we're welcoming some new clinicians over the coming months. We're even bringing back a familiar face pretty soon.

Cheers!

Thanks again to everyone who stopped by our Open House this past Saturday! It was wonderful getting a chance to connect with our community.

You shared some of your wonderful stories with us and listened to ours. We snacked and chatted with old friends and got to meet some new ones. We opened ourselves up to you and you responded in kind.

Thanks for letting us be part of this wonderful neighborhood over the past 2 years. Here's to many more!
