Alana Banks

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 10 years’ experience working with emerging adults, single parents, caregivers, older adults, and couples in a variety of settings.

My therapeutic philosophy is holistic — integrating the mind, body, and spirit to stimulate healing utilizing an eclectic approach incorporating my specialized training in evidence-based modalities to include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), mindfulness-based strategies, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing with attachment and trauma theories as a foundation.

I will always honor your pace, your journey and your preferences encouraging effective emotional regulation, healthy boundaries, personal accountability, effective communication and personal growth. I am an empathetic listener and creative thinker with a spirit of compassion to support individuals and couples explore emotional wellness and discover the inner power to heal and transform.
