Tedessa McDonnell

Sometimes we all need a space to pause, reflect and reset. With 12 years of experience, I offer a supportive space for children, teens and adults. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions and relationship challenges. Whether you are a teen navigating friendship and identify, a family adjusting to a new change or an adult trying to feel more balanced, together we’ll explore what’s feeling heavy, build insight and develop practical tools to help you move from just getting by- to truly thriving.

My approach is warm, compassionate and collaborative. I believe that therapy is successful when the relationship feels like a partnership where we explore challenges together and build practical tools for growth. I draw from CBT, DBT, strengths based and solutions focused approaches to fit your unique needs.

In our first few sessions, we’ll focus on building a trusting and supportive relationship. I’ll take time to explore your hopes, goals and what brings you to therapy. Together, we’ll create a collaborative plan to support your journey. Sessions will align with your needs, ranging from learning skills to reframe your thought process to regulating emotions.
