About Taija-Rae
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12yrs of social work experience and 5 years of clinical experience, specializing in trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and complex life experiences. My approach is culturally responsive, trauma-informed, person-centered and integrative. I am warm, collaborative, and grounded in creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen and supported. Some modalities that I specialize in are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotional Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing and Positive Psychology. However, I am well rounded to address a variety of needs and integrating different approaches to address client concerns. I focus on helping clients build self-awareness, process past experiences, and develop healthier ways of coping, relating, and moving forward. In our first sessions, you can expect a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where we explore what brings you to therapy, clarify your goals, and begin building a path toward growth at a pace that feels right for you. I’m known for creating a grounded, supportive space where clients feel seen and understood, while also being gently challenged toward meaningful change. Together, we work to increase insight, strengthen coping skills, and shift patterns that may no longer be serving you. I often describe the work as walking alongside clients through difficult moments-metaphorically holding your hand when things feel heavy-while also supporting you in moving through and beyond those challenges.
