My Approach to Helping

Jaida Edwards (sheherhers) has been passionate about the field of psychology and counseling since she was a child. Jaida places a major focus on the therapeutic relationship, rapport building, and validation in treatment. Her therapeutic approach is influenced by family systems theory with a focus on attachment, learned beliefs, and defense mechanisms. Jaida also employs other approaches in her treatment practice such as CBT, DBT, EMDR, somatic therapy, and IFS. This allows her to create an integrative approach unique to each client and their situation. Her therapeutic approach emphasizes collaboration, insight, and honesty.
