How do you work with clients with trauma and PTSD?

My intention is to provide a structured and supportive environment for you to feel good about while meeting your goals that include a healthier mental and physical well-being.

Welcome. I’m Dr. Gatta but if we work together please call me David. Good therapy is all about a trusting relationship. Over the course of my 13 year career I have had the privilege of working with a diverse group of people from college age students to senior citizens. My passion is helping people understand who they are, where they would like to go in life and what might be preventing those processes. From this standpoint my treatment philosophy is to address underlying causes rather than just symptoms. Doing so is the only way of achieving lasting substantive change. In order to do that I use a holistic approach, meaning I see each individual as a sum of their total life experiences together with their sociocultural contexts.  I have extensive experience working with family of origin issues, trauma, substance abuse, depression and life transitions (including grief and loss). My background is in clinical psychology where my doctoral dissertation explored dreaming as a theoretical form of thinking (cognition). I also have a background in neuroscience and the humanities . I have taught courses on trauma and recovery, addiction, grief and psychopathology. 

You want to thrive and trust yourself, but it feels like an impossible task. Don't you wish you had the tools to change that? You've come to the right place. I'm Kimberly, and I help women and teens just like you: ones that have it within them to feel confident, secure, and thrive, but just need the support to get there. I help my clients find confidence, fulfillment, and values by equipping them with the tools they need to better understand themselves and thrive. Many of today's solutions for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem are changing negative thoughts, leading many to feel misunderstood and like they are not making real progress. I know that your circumstances are unique, so I help you gain introspection by tailoring therapy to you, and always with an end goal in mind. My training in anxiety and depression means, y I have the expertise you need and deserve when feeling confident about yourself. But at the end of the day, you want to know you are working with someone who "gets" what it means to be a teen or woman struggling with anxiety and depression right? I get it because I have lived it myself. I know that sometimes you just want to quit. So when we work together, you won't just get a trained therapist, you'll get someone who truly understands what you are going through.

In life we go through challenges that we do not expect to experience. The variety of challenges can mentally impact our daily lives. As your therapist my goal is to work collaboratively with you to address issues such as anxiety, depression, life adjustments, and substance abuse. My goal is to assist you in finding healthy ways to cope. By using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and Motivational Enhancement Therapy I would like to help you navigate through life in a judgment free zone. During this season of your life I will guide you in identifying areas of change and assist you to define goals that will transform your life in a safe supportive environment. My desire is that you will take the necessary steps to begin the process of healing and restoration. I provide a caring, authentic, and collaborative approach in the therapy process. Therefore, I invite you to call me if you need help and are going through a difficult time. I’m here for you and your family. I look forward to hearing from you.
