Welcome to Bassie C and C Psychiatry
Guiding Principles
1. Compassion First
Every client deserves to be met with empathy, respect, and genuine care.
2. Safety & Trust
Healing begins in a space where clients feel safe, heard, and understood.
3. Collaboration Over Direction
Therapy is a partnership — together, we set goals and explore the path forward.
4. Evidence-Based Care
Approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care guide our work,
tailored to each individual’s needs.
5. Whole-Person Perspective
Healing considers mind, body, relationships, and environment.
6. Cultural Humility
We honor the diverse identities, values, and lived experiences each client brings.
7. Empowerment
The goal is not just coping but thriving — helping clients build resilience, self-
trust, and lasting change.
What To Expect
- Work with a therapist who integrates intuition, lived experience, and clinical expertise to create a treatment approach tailored to you.
- Practice mindful and somatic techniques in session to deepen your connection with your emotional body and support the processing of feelings.
- Participate in individual talk therapy grounded in a decolonial and relational framework—one that values authenticity, intimacy, and even moments of laughter.
- Explore your life story—including childhood, cultural identity, race, gender, generational experiences, systemic trauma, and citizenship status—through verbal or written expression.
- Develop a personalized toolbox of coping skills to use beyond the therapy room.
- Collaboratively set treatment goals and actively guide the direction of your care.
