About Navia
Navia Syrie is a Kansas LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with five years of experience. She works with adults and has experience supporting parents and young people, focusing on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, self-esteem, and life changes.
Navia emphasizes talking through difficult feelings rather than pushing them aside. She uses clear, direct conversation to help people name what they are carrying. Sessions often look at how past attachments and current patterns influence reactions to guilt and shame. She also brings practical tools from cognitive behavioral techniques to manage anxious thoughts and day-to-day stress.
Her approach stays client-centered. That means the person in the room decides goals and pace. Navia listens for what matters most and then uses narrative work to help people reframe unhelpful stories about themselves. Solution-focused techniques are used when someone wants shorter-term, goal-directed steps to change a situation.
Navia has worked with children ages 6 to 18 in addition to adults, and she draws on attachment-focused ideas when family patterns come up. She offers parenting tools and individual therapy skills she has used in those settings, while keeping adult clients central to the work.
People who come for help with guilt and shame often find sessions that combine gentle re-storying with concrete behavioral strategies. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details so they know how to start.
How attachment and CBT translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current reactions. In practice this means noticing patterns in relationships and how those patterns show up in guilt or shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It gives concrete skills to test and change unhelpful thoughts and small behaviors that maintain distress. Narrative Therapy helps people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves, highlighting different meanings and choices.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest ways to blend attachment ideas, CBT, and narrative techniques. That collaboration helps decide whether to focus on symptoms, relationship patterns, or the stories that keep someone stuck.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the current online options before booking. Practically, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time for appointments. A therapist can also adapt tools like thought records, narrative writing, and behavioral experiments to an online setting so clients can practice between meetings.
