About My Clients
My clients at Seasons of Growth Counseling are seeking a virtually supportive, safe space to explore, challenge and grow into alignment with their highest self.
My Background and Approach
Hello, I am Spencer, your friendly, affirming, safe space providing Licensed Professional Counselor, working by way of virtual practice in Connecticut. Life, as we know, does not come with a map or user manual nor does it come without its challenges. We may feel lost, down, panicked and ultimately trip ourselves up on patterns that leave us feeling stuck, impacting our mood, relationships, and overall well-being. The good news is we have the ability to heal naturally by altering our brain chemistry through a process called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). This evidenced - based therapeutic approach allows us to access, activate and alter neural networks in the brain allowing for traumatic memories and anxiety to be less intrusive, activating and bothersome in our lives. I utilize this modality for treatment in conjunction with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a type of psychotherapy focusing on the interconnectedness of our thoughts, feelings and emotions.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have over ten years experience in the field of counseling working in community agency, group private practice and individual private practice. I am a strong believer in our infinite ability to heal, starting with connection. Avoidance is the key factor in perpetuating cycles we hold onto as a way we've come to believe keeps us safe. In truth, it keeps us stuck. Healing begins in connection and it may be helpful to meet with someone who can supportively co-navigate, explore, challenge, and ultimately encourage us as we seek our own true north. If you are desiring to change course, feel free to make contact with the information listed below. It is an honor to be with you as you grow, evolve and flourish. Warmly, Spencer (He/They/She) 🏳️⚧️ 🏳️🌈
