Bitini Pannell
Psychotherapist -
My name is Bitini Pannell, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, supervised by Jennifer Buffalo, MA, LPC-S, LMFT of Luminary Counseling.
I specialize in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) SIT (Stress Inoculation Therapy), TII (Trauma Informed Intervention), for individuals who struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma history, stress, Bipolar I & II, BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder, and other mood disorders.
A philosophy I most align with is that most people have a deep desire to be happy! To smile more, to laugh more, to connect with the world around them and connect with people along the way. Positive psychology teaches you how to reduce those negative thoughts and reduce negative self-talk, by learning how to use “happy” language and to “rewire” a brain hurt by trauma.
Client and therapist relationship is so powerful because we grow a connection through trust and authenticity, allowing a space for you to explore your thoughts and inner world. I look forward to joining you on your journey of wellness, wholeness, and self discovery
