Summer Mowery

Hi, I'm Summer. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have over 13 years experience working with teens, adults, and families addressing symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorders, and relationship conflict. I love working with clients to increase their mindfulness practice, grow their self-confidence, and find new ways to manage their unique situations and everyday life stress. I am LGBTQIA+ Allied, Racial Injustice Allied, and HIV/AIDS Allied. You can learn more about me on my website www.opendoorsbhs.org .

My approach is trauma-informed, mindfulness-based, and solution-oriented. The goal is to help my clients understand their symptoms, what triggers and drives them, and find solutions to address them. We work on mindfulness training, skill building (coping, communication, social, relationship building, boundary setting/building, problem-solving, conflict resolution, etc.), and trauma resolution. The aim is to heal from the past and look forward to building your future.

After a client's first session, they should feel excited about starting their journey to increase self-awareness, self-confidence, and overall well-being. They should feel good about addressing their needs and working to become a better version of themselves. Lastly and maybe most importantly, they should feel a sense of relief in now having a safe place to address the darker sides of life.
