Hello!

Hello, I’m Tonya Gastineau. If you’ve found your way here, you might be feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or carrying emotional burdens that have become too heavy to manage on your own. Maybe you’re navigating a major life transition, healing from trauma, facing anxiety or depression, moving through postpartum struggles, or simply feeling disconnected from the person you hoped you would be. No matter where you are in your story, you deserve support that feels safe, steady, and truly understanding.

My passion for counseling comes not only from years of working with women in different seasons of life, but also from my own personal experience in therapy. Sitting in that seat—hoping for clarity, relief, or just one moment of peace—changed me in ways that helped me grow both as a person and as a therapist. I know what it’s like to want healing but not know where to begin, and that perspective shapes the kind, grounded space I offer my clients.

In our sessions, you’ll find a compassionate, faith-informed environment where you can slow down, breathe, and talk openly without judgment. Together, we’ll explore what’s been weighing on your heart, identify patterns that no longer serve you, and build practical, empowering tools that support your emotional well-being. My approach blends trauma-informed care, anxiety and depression counseling, and strengths-based therapy to help you move toward a life that feels calmer, more confident, and more centered.

Outside of counseling, I enjoy baking, singing, reading a good mystery, and walking my two dogs with my daughters—simple moments that keep me grounded and remind me of the joy found in everyday life.

If you’re ready for a supportive space to gain clarity, heal, and reconnect with who you are becoming, I’m here to help you take that next step.
