Hello! I’m so grateful you have started your journey toward mental health. My name is Paige and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about working with folks to support them through life’s (sometimes many) stressors. Embarking on the journey of self-discovery and healing is a courageous step, and I'm here to offer compassionate support along the way. As a therapist, my approach is rooted in creating a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Together, we will work collaboratively to navigate challenges, identify strengths, and cultivate resilience. Whether you're seeking guidance for anxiety, depression, life transitions, or relationship issues, I am committed to fostering a therapeutic alliance that empowers you to embrace positive change and enhance your overall well-being. Your unique journey matters, and I look forward to being a trusted companion on your path to growth and self-discovery. **I do not provide documentation or prescriptions for Emotional Support Animals (ESA)**

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our sessions, you can expect a space where your thoughts, emotions, and experiences are met with empathy and understanding. The journey involves self-discovery, enhanced self-awareness, and the development of coping strategies. Through collaborative exploration, you will gain valuable insights into your challenges, discover strengths, and cultivate resilience. Ultimately, I aim to empower individuals, providing them with the tools to navigate life's complexities, improve relationships, and foster positive personal growth. Each session is a step toward greater well-being and a more fulfilling life Remember that the first session is primarily an introduction, building trust and a strong therapeutic alliance takes time. Be open and honest about your experiences and expectations, and feel free to communicate any concerns or questions you may have about the therapeutic process.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a therapist, I tailor treatment to client needs and use the most effective, research-based techniques from a variety of treatments including cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, motivational interviewing, strengths-based, behavioral therapy, internal family systems and experiential therapy. My training has ranged from working in community settings, hospitals, teaching social work based college courses, inpatient behavioral health and long-term care facilities.

My treatment methods

Experiential Therapy

With a passion for experiential therapy, I specialize in creating transformative therapeutic experiences that go beyond traditional talk therapy. Drawing from a range of creative and interactive techniques, my goal is to facilitate a dynamic and hands-on approach to healing. Through activities such as art, movement, and mindfulness, clients can engage in a profound exploration of emotions and self-discovery. In this collaborative and experiential space, individuals have the opportunity to connect with their inner selves, foster personal growth, and cultivate lasting positive change.

Grief Therapy

With a compassionate and empathetic approach, I specialize in grief therapy to support individuals navigating the challenging journey of loss. Drawing from my experience, I provide a safe and nurturing space where clients can express, explore, and process their grief. Whether coping with the loss of a loved one, a significant life change, or the myriad emotions that accompany grief, my therapeutic approach aims to foster healing and resilience. Together, we navigate the unique aspects of your grief journey, helping you find meaning, honor memories, and gradually rebuild a sense of hope and connection.

Trauma Informed Care

As a practitioner committed to trauma-informed care, I bring a deep understanding of the widespread impact of trauma on individuals. Rooted in compassion and sensitivity, my approach prioritizes safety, trust, and collaboration. I strive to create an environment that recognizes and validates the effects of trauma while empowering clients to navigate their healing journey at their own pace.

Strength-Based

With a strengths-based approach, I specialize in recognizing and harnessing your innate capabilities and resilience. Together, we focus on your unique strengths, talents, and past successes as powerful tools for personal growth and positive change. By fostering a mindset that emphasizes empowerment and self-discovery, I aim to guide you in building upon your strengths to overcome challenges and achieve your goals.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

As a practitioner committed to person-centered care, my approach is rooted in the belief that you are the expert of your own experience. I prioritize creating a warm, non-judgmental space where your unique needs, values, and perspectives take center stage. Through active listening, empathy, and collaboration, I aim to support you in exploring your goals and finding your own solutions.
