Hi, I'm Mia! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I care deeply about helping clients feel like themselves again.
I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, and I specialize in anxiety, OCD, and trauma. With EMDR training and additional focus in CBT, exposure-based approaches, and IFS, my goal is to help you build the skills and strategies you need to feel more in control, more present, and more like the person you were created to be.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and individualized to you. I believe the therapeutic relationship itself should be healing, so creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and genuinely comfortable being yourself is very important to me.
At the same time, I want therapy to give you practical tools that create meaningful change outside of our sessions. Depending on your needs, I integrate approaches such as CBT, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), EMDR, IFS/parts work, and solution-focused therapy. Together, we may work on understanding patterns, processing past experiences, challenging fears and unhelpful beliefs, and building concrete skills to help you navigate everyday life.
Ultimately, my goal is not simply to help you cope with symptoms, but to help you feel more present, confident, and free to live the life you want to live.
Our first session is about getting to know you, what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to change. You don't need to have everything figured out as we'll explore your concerns at a pace that feels comfortable and begin identifying goals together. My hope is that you leave feeling heard, supported, and with a clear sense of how we can move forward.
