I'm Denise Davis-Moore and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. What are we doing? I am going to ask you that at our first meeting and at everyone after that. Our journey together will be one that explores just that. You're not in therapy to wander aimlessly and waste time. You're in therapy because you want something to change. You want to think something different, feel something different, DO something different. I’m here to help you figure out what that something is and how to make it happen. We'll talk, we'll listen, we'll laugh, we'll cry, we'll challenge, we'll question, we'll explore...and ultimately we will figure it out.
