Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Hi, my name is Chanelle Garcia! I am a clinician at our Quincy, MA clinic who offers therapy services!
I have lots of experience working with people of all ages (i.e. children, teens, adults) and I strive to create a safe space where you feel supported, cared for, not judged, heard, and understood. In my practice, I use strengths-based, person-centered, and trauma-informed care to navigate obstacles, explore worries, and find ways to push through big emotions instead of avoid them. I want you to come as you are, even if that means with no makeup, in sweatpants, and with messy hair.
My goal is to help build your communication, stress management, and emotion regulation skills to navigate challenging moments. We’ll be using different strategies to increase your understanding about yourself and the connections with others. I am ready to be the passenger while you are in the driver’s seat navigating us to the other versions of yourself.
I believe we all need someone to help us navigate dark times. Seeking support is a huge step towards addressing challenges and improving our circumstances. I am proud of you for being brave and starting this process of getting connected to someone. I’m excited to hold the flashlight as we walk on this path towards improvement and wellness.
