LCSW, 12 years of experience
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the NY area, with over a decade of experience dedicated to individuals and families searching for mental health wellness, with a commitment to emotion management. My focus is to listen generously to the client in order to build a therapeutic relationship that will provide the right techniques and skills to develop mental well-being.
During the initial session, clients are encouraged to share thoughts and feelings about what will be helpful in their process. Clients are encouraged to ask questions often. Comfort is important in getting to know one another. The first session is especially important for the client to see if this is the workable and the best fit for their especially important journey.
What makes me unique is my ability to create a soothing, engaging, and empathetic environment without judgement. My client' are empowered and know It is a collaborative effort between myself and them. My approach to goal setting is working together on what the client wants to accomplish. My goal is to develop a trusting relationship, which usually makes for a better outcome in the therapeutic process.
I am dedicated to working with clients who are ready for mental health wellness. My approach is geared toward the client's comfort. My clients are met where they are at in their wellness journey. Sessions are intended to provide support while decreasing anxiety, depression, and self-doubt.
CBT is a method of psychotherapy that focuses on adjusting thoughts that are not helpful and most likely cause unpredictable behaviors and emotions. In my practice, we explore and challenge the recurring thoughts attached to the feelings causing the difficulties, and identify what is needed to get to a healthier place.
