Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Calvin, a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience in counseling. I have extensive experience helping individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, stress and other mental health challenges. Throughout my career, I have worked with people from diverse backgrounds, providing support in a variety of settings. I am also a licensed addictions counselor with experience in helping individuals navigate recovery and build healthier, more fulfilling lives.

My approach to therapy

My approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques, meaning we’ll work together to identify negative thought patterns, develop practical coping strategies, and create real, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

In our sessions, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. My goal is to help you develop practical tools to manage challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful change in your life.

I believe therapy should be collaborative and action-oriented, so each session will be tailored to your unique needs and progress. You can expect to leave our sessions with a clearer understanding of your challenges, specific strategies to apply in your daily life, and a sense of confidence in your ability to move forward. My approach is compassionate, yet practical, helping you take meaningful steps toward lasting well-being.
