Miltonjha Grier
My name is Miltonjha Grier (pronounced Mill-tawn-juh). A Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina and South Carolina with years of professional work experience. Bachelor's degree in Rehabilitation Studies and Human Services (2015)
My style of therapy is more of a listener but I am here to help you find your own solutions, in an effort to help you leave every session feeling motivated, determined and empowered!
Winston Salem State University (Go Rams!) Master's degree in Social Work (2018) Johnson C. Smith University (Go Golden Bulls!) I have experience in helping teens/adolescents, adults and families with stress and anxiety, life changes, motivation, self-esteem/confidence, & depression/anxiety mostly in the outpatient setting. I also have experience with helping individuals with other mood disorders as well. I implement a variety of therapeutic interventions based on your specific needs but just to name a few, I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Solution Focused Therapy. I prefer to tailor the therapy modalities to your needs. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. The partnership between therapist and client is essential in developing and strengthening EFFECTIVE coping techniques! I like to think of myself as down-to-earth, understanding, goal driven and compassionate. I enjoy spending time with family, nights out on the town, traveling, 90's R&B and fashion, and trying new restaurants. My favorite color is pink. I do not have any pets but I enjoy talking about animals and fur babies. My style of therapy is more of a listener but I am here to help you find your own solutions, in an effort to help you leave every session feeling motivated, determined and empowered!
First session
In our first session, we will begin to build rapport and get to know more about one another and your reason for seeking therapy through an initial intake assessment. In sessions to follow, we will set therapy goals and begin unfolding the layers of your goals through talk therapy, introducing and learning coping skills and empathetic listening.
Strengths
In my time thus far working with clients, I've learned to remain genuine, authentic and relatable for best results.
Ideal clients
I enjoy working with adults who struggle with coping with depression, stress, anxiety and other life adjustments and often feel that their current methods are ineffective or unhealthy and are open to challenging themselves to learn new ways of managing.
Treatment methods
Supportive
My experience with supportive therapy centers on helping clients stabilize, strengthen coping skills, and feel emotionally held during periods of stress or transition.
