It takes A LOT of courage to sit down and talk to someone about how you are really doing. That is why I strive to make sessions an inviting and safe place to discuss whatever it is you would like to work on to improve in your life. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and Georgia with over 20 years of experience assisting others to make changes to live their best lives.
My approach to therapy is pretty simple. We start with where ever it is you are at in your life and focus on the changes that you would like to make. My role is as a guide to help you on your journey to reach the destination you are wanting to reach. Life is a journey, along the way it can be very beneficial to have a neutral person to sit down with to discuss, process, and work through challenges that life brings our way. My services include an eclectic combination of treatment modalities including solution focused, motivational interviewing, strengths based, cognitive behavioral therapy, and supportive therapy.
You can expect our first session to be light and focus on just getting to know one another. Research has shown repeatedly that the most effective element of therapy is the rapport between therapist and client. Our first session will work on establishing the rapport. I will ask about what brings you in and what you are seeking to get out of our time together. You should know the session is for you and my goal is for you to leave feeling heard and empowered to make positive changes in your life.
