Thank you for reaching out for support. I’m Fanny Gradzikiewicz, LPC, a bilingual (spanish) mental health professional with 18 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families. I hold a Master’s degree from Andrews University, and I am passionate about helping people navigate difficult seasons of life, strengthen their relationships, and discover their capacity for growth and healing.
I believe therapy should be a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, accepted, and understood. I use an individualized approach because every person and relationship is unique. Depending on your needs and goals, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology, strengths-based therapy, compassion-focused approaches, and Imago Relationship Therapy.
My work is centered not only on identifying problems, but also on recognizing your strengths, building on your existing resources, and developing practical tools that can help you create meaningful change.
My Hope for You
My goal is not simply to help you feel better temporarily, but to help you develop the insight, skills, confidence, and self-compassion needed to create lasting change.
Healing can mean learning healthier ways of coping, strengthening relationships, accomplishing personal goals, making healthier life choices, and developing a more positive and hopeful view of the future.
I believe that you are more than the challenges you are facing. With support, self-awareness, and a willingness to grow, you can build healthier relationships, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
You do not have to navigate that journey alone. I would be honored to walk alongside you.
During our first session, we will take time to understand what you are experiencing, what brought you to therapy, and where you would like to go. We will explore your concerns, strengths, needs, and goals and begin developing a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
I believe therapy works best when we work together. You will be encouraged to actively participate in your healing, practice new skills between sessions, and apply what you learn to your everyday life. Progress may be reflected through assessment tools, but also through the changes you begin to notice in your thoughts, emotions, relationships, choices, and overall quality of life.
