Saidee Purcell | M.Ed, LCPC
Hi there, I’m Saidee
Within this journey of life, we face many challenges and adversities. Some experience situations and life events that are completely out of their control. In going through traumatic experiences, our mind and body sometimes respond in ways we never expected.
As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I hold passion towards helping those who suffer from traumatic stress of the mind and body. I hold space for my clients to navigate ways through life's circumstances so they can find a functional mindset and coping strategies towards their automatic responses. I have a Master of Education from the University of Dayton and hold licensure in both Illinois and Ohio. I have counseling experience in treating PTSD, Mood Disorders, and anxiety disorders. I am trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy and in treatment I utilize methods from IFS and inner child modalities to engage my clients in conversations regarding past life events that continue to hold significant impact in their daily life.

THE LIVING PONO APPROACH
in life, Pono stands for righteousness and balance
In Hawaiian, if a person is living Pono, it means that they have struck the right balance within themselves, with other things, places, and the people in their lives.
We take that same approach when helping you to grow.
