Hello, and thank you so much for stopping to explore my profile, welcome. Reaching out for support is the first step in your journey of healing. The impact of traumatic events on our minds, bodies and spirits is real and supremely significant. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective using empirically based interventions combined with approaches that are designed to nurture the spiritual being in us all. I welcome any and all perspectives on spirituality. My focus is based in cultural literacy and most importantly cultural humility. I am very in tune with the fact that you know yourself better than anyone.
I view our work together as skillful trauma therapy wrapped in a comprehensive package of viewing you as a multidimensional and dynamic person. I specialize with couples therapy and the unique needs of our LGBTQAI community. I am honored to walk with you on your healing journey.
Please contact our intake department at The Sanctuary Counseling at 716-291-0059 to set up an appointment. I am currently taking clients with a short period of time between intake and first appointment. If you would like a free 15 minute phone consultation, please ask when you phone intake. Wishing you light and healing.
Call or Donna Abram-Cioppa now for a free 15 minute consultation - (716) 291-0059
