Great to meet you!

My name is Octavia Scott. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 14 years of professional work experience. I work with various populations. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and helping clients build their confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.

My approach to therapy

My therapy approach is solution focused, psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral approach, client centered, and a holistic approach.

What you can expect from me

My clients always feel refreshed and empowered after a session with me. During the initial assessment, I focus on rapport building, which continues on throughout our therapeutic relationship. I allow my clients to ask questions and inform me of their expectations. My clients can expect for me to be a great listener, empathetic, responsive, kind, motivating, and professional. I look forward to working with you, and helping you achieve your goals.
