Taalor Brodigan, LMHC(t) Outpatient Mental Health Therapist
*New Therapist at Verdant, Immediate Openings Available*
Choosing to seek therapy often brings anxiety about finding the right support amidst existing life stressors, which can feel overwhelming. My primary goal in therapy is to ensure you feel seen and heard, as you are the expert of your own life. Together, we will navigate your journey toward healing, wellness, and achieving your life goals. I hold an M.S.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Illinois University, a B.A. in Psychology from St. Ambrose University, and I am a National Certified Counselor. My experience spans various settings, focusing on depression and anxiety, trauma, substance use, eating disorders, family dynamics, and other life stressors. I employ a unique and eclectic therapeutic approach tailored to your individual needs, utilizing methods such as EMDR, CBT, and ACT, while incorporating creative techniques like bibliotherapy and art therapy. I believe your therapy should reflect the uniqueness of your life. Both in-person and telehealth options are available to suit your preferences.
Bekah Adolphson, LMSW Outpatient Mental Health Therapist
In therapy, I want to provide a safe and inclusive space for all individuals to heal at their own pace. I feel privileged to walk alongside individuals as they make sense of themselves in this world. Just as every individual is unique, my approach includes an eclectic style utilizing ACT and CBT modalities. My graduate studies focused on trauma-informed care and PTSD, which included clinical elements from various trauma therapy modalities as well. I have experience working in outpatient and inpatient settings, addressing a variety of mental health concerns, such as bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, ASD and ADHD, anxiety, depression, identity concerns, and PTSD. Although my experience is broad, I enjoy working with trauma to help bring insight into what is impacting your over-all well-being.
