Helping clients become well-rooted so they can flourish
Gretchen Twietmeyer, RCSWI
Nurturing Self-Compassion through Therapy
My name is Gretchen Twietmeyer, and I am a Registered Clinical Social Work Intern with a deep-seated passion for helping adults heal and grow from the impacts of complex trauma. My mission is to support clients as they cultivate self-compassion and confidence, build healthy relationships, reduce anxiety, and transition from merely surviving to truly flourishing. I take a warm, relational approach to therapy, integrating body-based (somatic) techniques and evidence-based tools from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) when beneficial.
My journey into the field of mental health counseling was shaped by a profound interest in how early experiences impact our sense of self, relationships, and emotional well-being. With experience working with clients facing a range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, childhood trauma, interpersonal difficulties, communication issues, and social anxiety, I am well-equipped to support clients on their journey towards healing and growth. I believe deeply in the healing power of safe, attuned relationships and strive to create a compassionate space where clients can reconnect with their inner resilience.
