Practicing in Cascade

Justina Reed

My passion in life has always been to help others. Since being in social work, I have held the motto:

“If I could just help at least one person then I have accomplished my goal.”

Deciding to seek out therapy is no easy feat and can sometimes be overwhelming, however it can also be the most rewarding benefit that you can give yourself.

I focus on creating a safe and comfortable space for my clients; listening to your feelings/thoughts, utilizing sensory integration as a tool during the session to help with emotional regulation, providing compassion and empathy, providing resources, working with you on building your self-capacities/self-worth, and most importantly working with you to achieve healing in yourself and within your relationships with others. I would love the opportunity to explore and walk through this journey with you!

I graduated with my Master’s in Social Work with a focus on Cognitive Behavior Therapy from Wayne State University and am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW).

I have 9 years of experience providing therapeutic services to clients of all ages, through individual, family, and couples therapy.

I utilize an array of treatment modalities to focus on integrating and healing the body, mind, and soul/spirit. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused-CBT, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), Complex Trauma, utilization of Yoga skills during reprocessing of trauma, expanding the window tolerance, Sensory Processing, and Play Therapy.

I have a passion to work with children of all ages, as well as adults, couples, and families. I incorporate cultural sensitivity into my practice and have worked with clients of diverse cultural backgrounds and the LGBTQIA+ community.
