“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” -Maya Angelou
Hi, I'm Penny! This quote guides the way I wish to practice therapy. I am a licensed clinical social worker with over twenty years of experience working with children, youth, and adults in the field of trauma. I am passionate about supporting clients recovering from anxiety, and depression while on their path to wellness.
Our work together will exist in a caring therapeutic relationship where you can be fully seen and heard. I will show up for you with patience, respect, empathy, and without judgement.
As an immigrant and woman of color, I bring a deep curiosity in understanding your origin story, and how it influences who you are today.
As humans, we are capable of change and growth. Through the practice of conscious awareness, we hold the power to interrupt automatic thought patterns. By shifting our thoughts and rewriting our narratives, we can be more in control of our feelings.
It takes courage to seek out therapy. I applaud your bravery in this first step, and I am grateful that you are considering working with me. Feel free to schedule a consultation so we can ensure that we are the right fit for each other.
