Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Pennsylvania. I have received my Master's Degree from Marywood University and have been working in the field for 17 years. I help individuals work through the depression and anxiety they are experiencing and work to reframe negative thinking and emotions to help individuals become happier and more at peace with their situations.
During the first session, we will start with a brief introduction and description of why you are seeking out therapy. Discuss specific goals you would like to gain by attending session, and create a specific treatment plan to work on though the following sessions.
Having worked with individuals for the past 17 years to help them identify the different sources of the depression and anxiety that they have been experiencing. I work at helping them reach their fullest emotional wellness through identifying root causes to the emotions they are experiencing and coping skills to use to help alleviate these negative emotions.
I help individuals process their internal dialog and identify any negative thought processes that feed any negative emotions they are experiencing. Once these thoughts are identified, will help individuals challenge these negative though processed but working to replace them with more positive, healthy ones. Individuals are encouraged to work on implementing behavioral changes in their daily routine that will increase internal peace, positive thinking, and healthy coping skills.
