Welcome! I'm Shari Wofford, licensed clinical social worker. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked for years with young parents going thru stressful times, families dealing with devastating diagnoses, caregivers of chronically ill family members, and clients needing support with boundary awareness and setting, I assist by doing things with my clients, not to them.

I’ve been treating Anxiety for over five years, mainly using CBT. We’ll focus on what triggers your anxious thoughts and the false stories your mind tells you. Then, we’ll create a concrete plan that includes evidence-based techniques and work through it together until your anxiety is manageable.
