About

My name is Bridgjette Evans, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience counseling adolescents and adults in a school and in a clinical environment. I also specialize in helping people in their desire to close the gap between their present state of being while at the same time instilling positive and productive visions of where they want to be in the future with supportive individualized therapy sessions.
When it comes to professional counseling, I envision and equate it to a professional coach but instead of coaching athletics, I coach professional life skills to clients. Helping them to cope with life stressors and providing tactics to navigate through the social constructs of society. Moreover, like a sports coach who help athletes train their bodies for strength and conditioning for peak performance, as a professional counselor, I visualize myself training individual’s minds for mental excellence and balance.
My theoretical orientation is a person-centered approach. However, I combine cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, acceptance commitment therapy when needed. I use an integrated approach when creating a treatment plan to address each person as a whole.
Furthermore, I keep in mind the needs of my client’s safeguards, symptoms, and personality, as well as, provide an empathetic, safe, trustworthy environment, which allows us collaboratively to identify and conquer concerns. Lastly, I believe that being a therapist is an incredibly rewarding career. Interacting positively and proactively with people helps in the healing process and problem solving. For me, it is deeply satisfying, and time well spent helping people to lead more productive, functional, and happier lives. I am the author of Pleasant Place of Peace: Journal/ Workbook for Anxiety.
