Welcome, my name is Fran Haggerty and I want to thank you for choosing therapy. Thank you for dedicating your time and energy into improving your situation. I am confident that Therapy will benefit you greatly and provide you with the necessary tools to help you sort through your challenges. My goal is to create a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will navigate the challenges you are facing and create an improvement plan that will allow you to move forward with confidence. I value your dedication and commitment to this process that has proven invaluable to many who have garnered the strength to improve their lives. I have been a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2002 and have worked with men, women, and couples to improve their ability to think logically and communicate effectively. I aspire to work with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed with what life has thrown at them. These challenges include increased anxiety, depression, addiction, self-esteem, and embracing the confidence to move forward. My professional approach combines evidence-based interventions including CBT, and motivational interviewing, along with proven coaching strategies to effectively accomplish your goals.
Together, we will identify your challenges and goals - where you want your life to be a month, six months, a year from now. Then, we'll identify options and strategies you can use to get there. You'll leave the session with a better understanding of what you're facing with an "actions I can take right now" approach. There will always be room for suggestions concerning our work together, including keeping each other accountable.
My ability to listen, empathize, and identify root causes are among my greatest strengths. I will work with you to develop a comprehensive personal develop plan that will provide you with coping mechanisms and emotional encouragement for you to achieve your goals.
I love working with clients who are facing challenges, whether it be personal or professional, and are willing to openly discuss their goals and aspirations. I am very comfortable addressing issues surrounding depression, Anxiety, and Veteran issues by utilizing modalities including CBT and strengths-based interventions.

Fran is very approachable and easy to talk to, and I felt very comfortable talking to him - almost like having an easy conversation with a friend. In addition, I was having difficulty getting services from the VA, and he gave me strategies to refile for additional benefits. I'm very glad I selected him.
