As people, we have a deep need to be understood, and one of the most profound ways to explore and experience this is in a safe and affirming therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, I work with individuals using an eclectic and holistic approach, walking alongside each individual to identify their needs and put their inner experience at the center, engaging both mind and body, so that barriers to their well-being can be lifted. In my practice, I look to be responsive, collaborative, and affirmative when working with folks' intersecting identities and how those identities show up within the therapeutic relationship.

Adrienne K Crim
Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern, MSc, RMHCI
Verified
Hello! I am Adrienne. I completed my Master of Science in Professional Counseling in 2018. As a therapist, longtime professional “helper” for over 15 years, and avid traveler, I have seen how we are all connected through the shared human experiences of joy, pain, gratitude, suffering, sadness, love, and hope. I also know that sometimes our journey gets hard, and our burden becomes too overwhelming to carry on our own. Our connectedness makes it possible for us to reach out for a trusted person to help us carry our burden until we are strong enough again to go on our way. That is where I come in.

I provide counseling for children, adults and families. I specialize in and have extensive training working with those that have experienced childhood trauma. There are two evidenced based treatments for treating traumatic stress symptoms: TF CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I am the only therapist in Lee County who is certified in TF CBT and also an approved EMDR therapist. My extensive experience treating trauma in children helps in my work with adults as many of their current struggles relate back to childhood and painful memories.
