Tracy Dempsey
Yomaris Ramos Rivera
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Informed care. I work in partnership with my clients to help them identify goals and values and work towards those goals and live a life in alignment with their values. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and that all people who want to make a change in their lives and are willing to put in work have the capacity to do so. I always use an anti-racist, anti-oppressive lens in my practice. I received my bachelor's degree at Northwestern University, my master's degree at the University of Chicago, and have spent my career working at the Veterans Affairs and Yale New Haven Health.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session is all about determining if we are a good fit. I am most interested in knowing "why now?" and what your expectations and hopes of therapy and your therapist are. By "why now?" I mean what lead you on this day, this week, this month, etc. to say "yes I am ready for change." I will tell you about myself, specifically my methodologies, approach to therapy, and what you can expect from me throughout the therapeutic process. I will gather a brief bio-psych-social history from you (this may bleed into the second session) and we will go over logistics such as cancellations, scheduling, etc. so that nothing is a surprise. From there, if you feel what I have to offer matches what you are looking for, and I believe I have the proper qualifications to provide effective treatment, we will schedule a next session which will focus on creating a treatment plan together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am able to empathize with a client and push them towards their goals at the same time, creating an environment that is warm and safe, while fostering the change the client came to me looking for. I have been told by clients that my authenticity and excitement for the work that I do is palpable. I have training in multiple methodologies, giving me the knowledge and skills to tailor treatment to the needs of the individual client. I always bring a strength's based, trauma-informed, anti-oppressive lens to therapy, and believe the client and I are partners in the journey. Together, we will make change happen.
