LCSW, 15 years of experience
New to Grow
Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. I know personally how hard it can be to reach out for help, and I think it shows a lot of strength that you're trying to make your life better! I aim to provide a warm, non-judgemental environment where we can explore what tools might helpful for you, and maybe even laugh a little! I have 15 years of experience in the field and I have been certified in researched, evidence-based therapies that we can try together, including CBT, CPT, Motivational Interviewing and Seeking Safety. I'm here to help you find solutions that will help improve your life and help you connect with your values. We can try out several different research backed therapies until we find what is most helpful for you.
During our first session we will explore the issues you've been facing and start to identify what goals might be helpful for you in therapy moving forward.
I have experience working with clients with many different and unique issues. Our sessions can be highly structured with worksheets or they can can be more open ended, whatever you feel works best for you.
I often work with clients who struggle with feeling like they can't control their worries, or are feeling stressed and burned out from work. I have also worked with many clients dealing with daily sadness and depression, the effects of trauma, and clients managing chronic health conditions like HIV. In addition, I have many years of experience helping clients who identify as LGBTQ+ and are looking for an affirming, understanding space.
