Hello, my name is Jaime Gaudet. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Art Therapist. I have over 22 years of experience as a counselor and I use a Client-Centered approach. I have been described as compassionate, creative, friendly and easy-going.
My approach
Client-Centered, Positive Psychology, and I use Art Therapy techniques, as needed. It is not necessary to be a good artist and clients do not have to try Art Therapy if they don't want to. Talk-therapy is also fine.
My focus
I typically work with clients who are struggling with; anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, parenting issues, poor coping skills, and anger management.
My communication style
It feels welcoming to work with me. I try to create a safe environment for clients to work on improving their coping skills in a nonjudgmental atmosphere.
My journey to mental healthcare
I always knew I wanted to be in a helping profession to help people and then my aunt introduced me to pursuing a counseling career.
My goals for you
We will work on identifying your goals together and then come up with a plan.
My first session with you
The first session is about me discovering more about you and learning about your history and goals.
