3 therapists in West Virginia matching your needs

I am a Licensed Clinical Social work with my Doctorate in Social Work from Rutgers University and a Master's in Social Work from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I have 18 years of clinical practice. I am licensed in NJ for in-person/telehealth and telehealth only in ME, VA, VT, DE, ID.

When I was in grad school I was asked this question: why do you want to do therapy? My answer was immediate: "I want to alleviate suffering!" A more experienced clinician shared a perplexing truth with me: sometimes you can't, you can just sit with the person through it. Over the years I have been honored to hold space for my clients to share their stories of courage and pain. I started to see what she meant, and revised my motto: I want to alleviate suffering and when I can’t I want to create a soft place to land. So, "Why therapy?” For all those who have forgotten their strength and just need a soft place to land. Using a blended approach of top therapy models, I partner with Clients to create lasting change and find freedom in ways that feel authentic to each person. Together we will learn new concepts, practice practical skills, and transform self-limiting patterns. Life can be hard. I want to help. Let’s talk!

I am an EMDR trained outpatient therapist with experience working with individuals, families, and group therapy. Whether facing a short-term situational obstacle or years of navigating anxiety, low self-worth, being in survival mode, confusing relationships, and/or past trauma - with validation and compassionate feedback, we will explore together. At times the answers may be simple. New coping skills, reframing a situation, or just having a safe place to tell your story. Or maybe the answers are more complex and lead to a deeper dive into the root cause of distress. I may not have met you, but I believe in your capabilities, accept your choices, and respect you as a thoughtful and intelligent person.
