Justine Isakson, LMHC, believes that therapy should be a journey towards recognizing and nurturing healthy, fulfilling patterns rather than simply focusing on difficulties. She prioritizes establishing a strong, trusting relationship with clients, enabling a collaborative environment where personalized goals can be created to meet individual needs. With a focus on promoting long-term change, Justine tailors her treatment approaches to avoid a 'cookie-cutter' methodology. Her experience includes guiding those who have faced significant trauma and loss, empowering them to redefine their narratives and progress beyond the constraints of their pasts. Justine is proficient in various trauma-focused evidence-based approaches, including trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and parent-child psychotherapy. She is dedicated to facilitating pathways toward health and balance in her clients' lives. Additionally, Leon, her therapy dog in training, will occasionally join sessions, enhancing the therapeutic experience as he works towards being a full-time support for clients.
