You might be able to describe that "something" perfectly or maybe you don't know what that "something" is, but you know you are just feeling "off". Maybe you are familiar with therapy, or maybe this is the first time considering it. The only thing that matters at this moment is that you are taking that first step. I start from where you are at and work with you from there. No assumptions, judgements, or "one size fits all" approaches. Just a desire to understand you, your needs and your goals for therapy. Therapy is a different experience for everyone. I understand that and we will work together in addressing whatever has led you to taking this first step.

Hi there! Do you find yourself feeling "lost" by the various struggles of your life? Do you find yourself questioning your purpose? Let me help you! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of experience in the community mental health arena. I have worked with a variety of concerns i.e. crisis management, depression/anxiety, grief/loss, relational issues and stress management. Often times, we can lose sight of what we need when we are pushing through our own emotional fog. I can help you navigate these experiences in real-time with solutions suited to your desired outcomes.

Despite what you have been through, your past mistakes, hurts, and disappointments do not have to define you. I would like to support you while nurturing your self-love, self-worth, and self-advocacy. Hello, my name is Fashen, I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida and Virginia. I have nine years of experience in the mental health field with a history of working with survivors of intimate partner violence, individuals with serious mental illness (SMI), providing crisis intervention, and practicing within inpatient behavioral health settings. My focus is supporting adults who are experiencing depression, struggling with self-esteem issues, difficulty maintaining healthy personal boundaries and/or navigating the lasting effects of childhood emotional wounds and the challenges that can arise from growing up in dysfunctional environments. Additionally, I provide support to women who need assistance processing grief related to a terminated pregnancy. Overall, I am committed to supporting my clients with their mental health needs while offering a safe space where they may show up as their authentic selves.
