As a Master’s Graduate from East Carolina University and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of North Carolina, my ultimate goal in life is to help alleviate some of the stress that comes from daily living. Through working with NC’s Department of Social Services Reunification Program and specializing in Multi-Systemic Therapy (MST); an evidenced based program aimed at keeping families together and children from being displaced, it’s clear to see that most of my background consists of working with families and couples in an effort to strengthen bonds and relationships. However, as an outpatient therapist, I also have an extensive background working with individuals who are having a difficult time adjusting to the stressors of the world and may be wondering what to do with their lives. I believe in a strength based approach and meeting the client where they are; after all we are in this together, right? I have over ten years’ experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy; all that aim at highlighting the positives in your life and extending that to areas in which you’d like to see change. I am an active listener and believe in focusing on what you feel is most important and not the other way around.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session we will converse in order to ascertain if we are a good fit for each other. Depending upon that connection, we will enter into our initial assessment in order to determine the identify the root cause of the presenting problem
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
