Roberta Garrett

In 1984, I chose to live a clean and sober life, and I became a Licensed Addictions Counselor for many years. I went on to achieve an MSW and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 9 years.

I have a passion for assisting people to live their best lives based on their unique circumstances and challenges. I work with adults 18-104.

I specialize in Couples, Geriatrics, End of Life, Caregiver Support, Substance Abuse and Addictions. I have yet to be shocked by what a client shares and confidentiality is primary.

After learning what clients need and respond to, I choose from various Evidence-Based modalities. My approach is client-centered, solution-oriented, open-minded, humorous at times and creative. I especially like Acceptance Commitment Therapy and Gottman's approach to Relationships.

The first session will determine if we are a good fit for one another. There are often more questions than in subsequent sessions because a thorough assessment is important for me to learn and understand the client's story, values, barriers, motivators, and goals.

You can also expect to read and sign disclosures if you have not done so with Headway previously.

Ideally, we will schedule subsequent sessions depending on client's needs and desires.
