Hello, I am Leonard Uchendu, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LMSW). I have 12 years' experience working with Individuals, former incarcerated clients, and teenagers through telehealth practice. I like helping Clients with psychological distress, maladaptive thinking, relationship conflicts, personality disorder, existential crisis and addiction resolve their issues. My practice is a trauma informed practice. I work with clients to address their underlying trauma and adverse life experiences and grow into post-traumatic resilience. I help clients develop self-management strategies to function optimally.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My therapy room provides you a safe space to explore your life issues and develop self-management strategies to function optimally. Our first session will involve rapport and trust building, clarification of limits of confidentiality and treatment expectations, brief assessment, problem identification and collaborative treatment goal and planning formulation. I will actively listen to you, explore your past trauma and underlying causes of your issues, assign homework and check in with you as needed.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am a very active listener. I treat my clients with empathy, congruence, non-judgmental, respect and unconditional positive regard. I have great success in using evidence-based techniques and methods to help my clients heal from their presenting issues. I provide clients adequate support they need and create validating environment that facilitates self- reflection, self-acceptance and self-integration.
