LCSW, 6 years of experience
New to Grow
Hello, I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Indiana. I attended graduate school at Indiana Wesleyan University and have a Masters in Social Work. I have about 5 years of experience as a therapist. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked as a case manager in a community mental health role for several years serving in an outpatient setting.
During the first session, I would like to work on building the therapeutic relationship which is the most important aspect of the therapeutic process. I will ask questions to get a better understanding of issues and goals.
I feel that I am both compassion and supportive in working with individuals.
I enjoy working with adults who are struggling with depression and anxiety. I am very passionate about helping domestic violence survivors achieve their goals.
I utilize EMDR to help identify core beliefs or traumatic events. Once these are identified and recognized we can work together to challenge and make changes that are important to you.
I utilize CBT to help identify maladaptive thought processes and work with the client to challenge these thoughts.
I utilize DBT skills to help clients who struggle with emotion regulation.
