Not Accepting Clients At This Time-My name is Pauline Botchway, and I strongly believe that, as human beings, we have the ability to change and transform our lives through choice. Since no single theory can capture our experiences as human beings, I utilize an integrated approach that allows me to use some aspects of Gestalt, Existential, and Solution Focused, as well as high utilization of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR. In addition to my community mental health, I am including private practice in my line of work. My main goal as a clinician is to help and guide individuals to change their lives to improve everyday living.

I believe that something powerful happens when we are seen, heard, and equipped with dignity and support. Counseling is a transformative process that can promote healing, hope, and change as we navigate the challenges that come with being human. I approach therapy through a person-centered, narrative, and family-systems framework. This means that the therapeutic process is centered around your story, your context, and your intersecting identities. I also prioritize trauma-informed care and will work to ensure that you feel safe and empowered during our time together.

I am an experienced therapist with over 30 years' experience in the fields of mental health; including child welfare, foster care, corrections, court system, chemical dependency and mental health case work. My goal is to help you become your best self, one step at a time.

I provide individual, couples, and family therapy, court ordered supervised visitation and reunification counseling.

My approach to therapy is based on a cognitive behavioral model, helping individuals learn how to cope with intense feelings and overcome struggles through addressing both the mind and the body. I believe knowledge is power, therefore I tailor my approach to each individual yet I primarily utilizes education, skill building and challenging unhealthy thinking styles to bring about change. Of course, I attempt to mix this with the right amount of encouragement to help you get the support you cannot always get from those around you. I work with any and all individuals, ages 13 and up, regardless of personal beliefs and identities.
