Congratulations for taking the hardest step in therapy, reaching out for help. Past traumas, grief, chronic pain and illness, failed relationships, poor self-esteem, or mental illnesses impacts each of us at difference times in our lives. These moments can make us questions ourselves, traps us into feeling hopeless, with no motivation or energy to believe in a better tomorrow. I will not promise that therapy will be easy or that I have a magic cure so you will no longer have Tragedy, illness or loss. I can promise to provide a safe space, using best practices to move forward. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience.
Outside of this work I have a twenty-five year background working in healthcare and behavioral health. I walk alongside each of my client's as identify and process their thoughts and emotional responses, help clients connect patterns, triggers, strengths and offer strategies to make different choices for a better tomorrow,
I want to understand your goals and why you are seeking services at this time in your life.
I would also explore what you would like to see in a therapist and your past experience. This first session is important to establish a safe space and if I am the best therapist for you.
If we agree to continue working together I will review consent forms explain what you can expect from my time as your therapist.
We will then address any immediate concerns or at risk needs and create goals schedule our next appointment.
