Chandler Dunham AppenClinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, CEDS (she, her)

About

I love to work with youth and adults coping with eating disorders, trauma, and life changes using a holistic, compassionate, and strengths-based approach. I help clients identify and challenge trauma-related stuck points and build awareness of how past experiences affect the present. I offer counseling with the combination of genuine support and openness and the opportunity for healing through creative expression. I see therapy as a collaborative partnership fostering self-awareness, connection, and growth. I offer Brainspotting, Cognitive Processing Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as trauma processing tools. I am a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS) and have a certificate in Art Therapy. I draw heavily from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), I CBT, and Radically Open DBT (RO-DBT).
