Hello and Welcome! My name is Cherrelle Barton and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor (LCSW-S) with 13 years of experience in the field. I commend you in taking the first step toward self discovery. I believe that what's most important in the therapeutic process is choosing a therapist that is the right fit. So just a little about me, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology in 2008 and went on to obtain my Master of Social Work degree in 2011. Those closest to me would describe me as kind, compassionate and patient. These qualities catapulted me into the behavioral health field. When working with clients I prefer to utilize strengths based, solution focused methods. Joining with clients in problem solving and analyzing to find solutions for troublesome symptoms. I believe that you are your best healer; I am simply the catalyst to guide you along the pathway to finding what it is you are needing and longing for.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

The initial session is comprised of setting ground rules relating to confidentiality, time management, and therapeutic etiquette. An in-depth assessment will be conducted to determine a psychiatric diagnosis and help formulate a treatment plan.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a clinician I genuinely care about the well-being of my clients. I continuously assess the needs of my clients as we progress through the therapeutic process; altering goals and interventions as needed. I use my professional use of self to connect with clients to where we laugh, cry, and create a safe space in which we are mindful of the here and now. As a clinician I feel my years of experience working with diverse populations of people young, elderly, medically ill, mentally ill, religious, non-religious, LGBTQ, neurodivergent etc has afforded me the opportunity to see that each client has needs specific to their situation and that no one can be categorized based on age, ethnicity, culture, religion or sexual orientation.
