Keziah Striplin (she/her)

My Approach to Helping

My approach is flexible, without a “one size fits all” method, and focuses on your strengths and challenges. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), narrative therapy, stages of change, motivational interviewing, solution-focused therapy, and more. This eclectic approach is person-centered, anti-oppressive, and strengths based. You can expect care tailored to your unique needs. We will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your goals, and I will share my knowledge and skills to help you achieve them. You are the expert on your life; your input is vital in shaping our therapeutic journey.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My counseling philosophy is that people need to be heard and validated before they can move forward on the path they choose toward optimal health and wellness. Having someone who believes in you and cheers for your success can make a world of difference in life and that is what I aim to do in this field and in my personal life. I believe that people have the ability within themselves to thrive and prosper. With acceptance, support, validation, and a wide breadth of knowledge and tools, the potential within is unlocked to heal and manage mental health and wellness.
