LMSW-C, 19 years of experience
Hello! I am a (LCSW) Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Michigan. I received my Masters from Wayne State University and have been a practicing social worker for 18+ years. I work with many clients that may experience anxiety, depression, grief , medical adjustment, and/or trauma. Sometimes we just need some assistance to manage life situations and all our life stressors.
In our first session, we will start with introductions and work on deep diving your lived experience as well as identifying some of your goals. We will work together to come up with a tailored plan of care for therapy sessions.
I find my work most rewarding and beneficial when supporting those individuals representing a diverse spectrum of race, ethnic, religious, sexual orientation, gender, and/or disabilities identity. I center therapy on each persons unique values and to assist them with navigating their challenges while working on their healing journey. I have a direct, non judgmental, and honest approach with all my clients.
When asked about the "ideal" client, My response will always be You! The ultimate goal is to build a mutual respectful therapeutic relationship that will take a strengths based approach to help you identify your strengths, abilities, needs, and therapy goals. We will integrate techniques and interventions that will focus on you as the whole person to help heal in a holistic process for aligning your mind, body, and spirit, and soul. I invite all individuals that are from varied experiences or walks of life that want to explore their healing journey.
I have over 20 years of experience and during that time I have helped people with a variety of struggles. My goal is to create a caring space where clients feel safe to explore all their emotions and gain a deeper understanding of themself and their strengths that will help them through their journey.
