Hi, I'm Cecily! I have been practicing Social Work for over 14 years, supporting clients through life transitions, stress, anxiety, and relationship challenges. I use a variety of therapeutic techniques to help clients build insight, develop coping strategies, and move toward self-actualization. My goal is always to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel empowered to grow and heal.
In our first session, clients can expect a supportive and conversational space where we’ll begin getting to know each other. I’ll ask about what brought you to therapy, explore your goals, and gather relevant background information. My priority is to build trust and ensure you feel heard, respected, and grounded from the very beginning.
One of my greatest strengths as a provider is my nonjudgmental and approachable manner, which helps clients feel at ease and truly seen. I bring a strong clinical foundation supported by years of experience, and I’m deeply committed to ongoing learning to provide the most informed, effective care possible. Clients often share that they appreciate my ability to balance warmth with insight, creating a space that feels both safe and growth-oriented.
I am best positioned to serve adult women navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, parenting, self-esteem concerns, and personal growth. Many of my clients are working professionals or caregivers who are juggling multiple roles and seeking balance, clarity, and emotional support. I specialize in creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where women can process their experiences and reconnect with their inner strength.
As a licensed clinical social worker with over 14 years of experience, I take an integrative approach to therapy that allows me to tailor sessions to each client’s unique needs, values, and life experiences. My work is grounded in the understanding that no single therapeutic modality fits all clients or situations. Instead, I draw from multiple evidence-based approaches—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, and Psychodynamic principles—to create a flexible, client-centered experience. In practice, this means I assess what works best for each individual based on their goals, identity, strengths, and areas of struggle. For example, with clients navigating anxiety or stress, I may incorporate mindfulness and somatic awareness alongside CBT techniques. With clients processing trauma or life transitions, I often weave in narrative exploration and strengths-based interventions to support healing and resilience. My integrative style also allows me to show up with cultural humility and responsiveness, particularly for clients from marginalized backgrounds or those experiencing systemic stressors. The therapeutic relationship remains central—my goal is to co-create a space that feels safe, affirming, and empowering.
