Desiree Lowery
I am a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience working with diverse populations in various settings. I possess a supportive style that is honest, direct, compassionate, and empathetic. I enjoy helping my clients learn strategies for changing their lives and feeling empowered. My approach encourages individuals to heal, grow, and thrive, enabling them to live their best lives.
First session
In a warm, easy going manner, I will assess your needs and goals. During this process we will discuss expectations, treatment, start to build a therapeutic rapport and explore next steps. This will give you an opportunity to get a feel for my therapy style and determine if I am a good fit.
Strengths
My therapeutic approach helps individuals gain insight, put things into perspective, problem solve, set healthy boundaries and learn appropriate coping strategies to effectively manage their lives.
Ideal clients
I have years of experience working with individuals with diverse backgrounds. Anyone who recognizes they need and seek help is my ideal client. The client who has a true desire to gain a better understanding of their issues, has a growth mindset, willing to do the work to change and committed to therapy goals, I am the therapist for them.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have over 20 years using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients understand the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviors. During this process clients learn to identify negative thought patterns and replace them with more positive ones. This helps to guide behavioral changes through skill building and reinforces new patterns of thinking. Sessions are goal oriented, structured and includes skill building exercises to practice between visits.
