My therapeutic setting is Person- Centered, you will have a safe, judgement free and empathetic space with me. I like to use Trauma Focused- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy as it helps to unpack traumas, identify triggers, process thoughts & feelings and learn a variety coping skills. I also use mindfulness techniques and artful coping to creatively engage my clients. We will work together to decide the best approach for you.

Zhane' Hedgman, MSW, Therapist
Why therapy? As individuals, the safe space that therapy provides is essential to our growth and development, as it provides us with the space to focus on prioritizing our mental health. I have successfully assisted youth, teens, and adults in navigating the therapeutic process to better identify and manage their substance misuse and mental health concerns. My goal is to provide my clients with a safe space to identify and utilize their strengths to address their presenting concerns or achieve their identified goals.
