Hello! My name is Tonette Decker, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I have a Masters degree in Psychology, and have worked with several populations including children in the foster care system and children diagnosed with Autism. I specialize in helping clients with post trauma symptoms, anxiety, and depression utilizing a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach.
In addition to a CBT approach, I incorporate Solution-Focused Therapy, Humanistic, and Family Systems Therapy. I work with adults, children, teens, and families to address relational conflicts, behavioral problems, and general family dysfunction. In addition, I support parents to better understand the underlying causes of their children's maladaptive behaviors such as, acting-out, self-harming, and/or self-isolating behaviors.
My therapy sessions offer a safe, non-judgmental, confidential, and encouraging environment. My goal in individual therapy is to help you gain healthy coping skills to heal from past traumas, manage stress and depressive symptoms, and maintain healthy relationships. Taking the next step to pursue therapeutic services is creating an opportunity for positive change, healing, and living a life filled with purpose. I offer free phone consultations to ask me questions about my practice and approach.
