Hello, my name is Holly. I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience dedicated to empowering clients be the best version of themselves. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and collaborative using a strengths-based, client centered approach. My clinical experience includes working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I have extensive training in crisis counseling in the Emergency Department and inpatient psychiatric units. I have worked in domestic violence and provided community-based therapy to children and families. I enjoy working with new mothers, caregivers, and those working through grief and loss.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I believe that therapy works well when it is a collaborative process. During our first session, you can expect an easy-going conversation to build a therapeutic alliance. I believe that you are the expert of your story and I want to hear about your experience. I practice entirely over tele-health, giving us the flexibility to connect conveniently and safely.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Clinical approaches: Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Focused Therapy
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
