Navigating life's challenges is never easy, but reaching out for help is a brave first step towards living a more genuine and fulfilling life. Justine Gordon, a dedicated Marriage & Family Therapist Associate, possesses expertise in assisting individuals grappling with childhood trauma and trauma-related symptoms, including grief, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and relational conflict. Her belief is that every client is unique and deserves to be listened to and understood with empathy. Justine is passionate about fostering a safe, kind, collaborative, and judgment-free environment where clients can gain new insights, experience transformative feelings, and find a renewed sense of physical and mental well-being. Drawing from a diverse array of therapeutic approaches such as EMDR, psychodynamic therapy, CBT, and DBT, she understands that past experiences and traumas, rooted in childhood, profoundly influence how individuals relate to themselves and others. Justine encourages clients to explore their histories and recognize repeating negative patterns. She also integrates somatic (body-centered) methods in treating PTSD. Furthermore, Justine is aware that maladaptive or irrational thoughts can significantly affect feelings and behaviors. By encouraging clients to explore and challenge these thoughts, her goal is to help them alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, ultimately leading them to a life where they feel more connected to themselves, others, and the world.
