Penny Vian, LMHC
Counselor
Bio
I enjoy working with women of all ages who have been struggling with various issues related to either childhood trauma and/or relational issues. It is my hope to provide a safe and nurturing environment for everyone. As a Christian, I am able to provide faith based counseling as well. I enjoy working with people at different points in their life. I have extensive experiences with family law, criminal justice and human relationships. As such, I bring all of these components to my office in order to assure that people feel safe and heard. I will utilize an integration of spirituality if requested and will also honor anyone who does not wish to integrate spirituality. My background in both the legal and mental health fields has equipped me to have special empathy for those in pain as I understand the court system and other systems that are often difficult for others. I am constantly attempting to learn more so that I can respond and be present for all my clients.
Areas Of Focus
Childhood and relational trauma, working with individuals with relational issues, ADHD, BPD, emotional regulation issues, women in transition and/or crisis, moral injury issues, spirituality integration, if requested. DBT, CBT, ACT, Narrative, and trauma focused therapies.
