About Me
Hi, I’m Ariel Batton (she/her), a licensed professional counselor and the person behind Second Breakfast Counseling. I work with women and LGBTQIA+ adults navigating trauma, including narcissistic abuse, difficult relationships, and life changes. I believe therapy should be collaborative, and I’ll work with you to understand what’s going on and find an approach that fits your needs.
My background includes work in foster care, psychiatric facilities, and women-focused care. Those experiences shape how I support clients today.
In addition to my clinical work, I am an animal lover and avid reader. I enjoy spending time outside with my loved ones.
Therapy with me is collaborative and tailored to you. Depending on what you’re working through, I may draw from EMDR, CBT, mindfulness, and other trauma-focused approaches. We’ll make sense of what you’re experiencing and find tools that feel useful in your life.
Dogs welcome
