Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LLMSW
Verified
I am passionate about helping couples, women, & adolescents who are going through the hardships life can bring us. Living in this pandemic has brought new challenges that can feel suffocating on top of daily life tasks and hardships. Avoiding painful areas of our lives can lead to addictions to cover up those feelings, however dulling the pain with harmful addictive behaviors can further add hurt to ourselves and the ones around us. We each have strengths and assets, instead of avoiding the challenging areas, I encourage clients to engage in personal growth and exploration, to dig in and discover the areas they can evolve and grow.

High achievers are often faced with an immense amount of pressure to perform. The pressure can be from others, the environment, or from yourself. Whether this is in the context of sport, school, work, or on stage, this pressure can lead to debilitating anxiety, depression, and other reactions. These issues can begin at a young age, or may have developed throughout the course of your life. Depending on your individual goals, I may be a provider who can help. This can be a conversation we have to determine if this relationship is appropriate for you.

In my 25 years of clinical work, the majority of my clients want to solve a problem(s) or gain control of their life. Seeking out therapy can be difficult for a multitude of reasons. Reaching out to a therapist is similar to reaching out to a physician, chiropractor or physical therapist; healing! In counseling, you decide the goals you want to reach.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW, ACSW
Verified
I have been in private clinical practice for 17 years. I have specifically trained to work with children, adolescents, young adults and older adults. My time is spent fairly equally working with mental health and substance abuse issues. Likewise, I have chosen to not focus on one specific age group, finding it to be more satisfying to see various aged people. I spend the most time with young adults, from ages of 16-26. I enjoy working with couples; though challenging, I can often offer a safe place for them to listen to one another.

I work to help people navigate their complex worlds in order to live a healthier, happier life. I believe that all components of one's life are interrelated. Stress, crisis, life changes and uncertainty happen to everyone, often without warning. When crisis or chaos strike, it is comforting to have someone listen in a safe, open, non-judgmental space in which you can uncover the inner strengths and skills you already possess. I work with clients to create this environment, through which genuine healing, change, and self-empowerment can occur.
Deena Agree
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LLMSW

I have a fascination for people. I love to engage deeply with my clients, hearing their stories and helping them work through the problems they bring to me. I work with a wide variety of people, ages 15 and above. I don't have a specialty; I am a generalist at heart. Being an older woman myself gives me a wide scope of life experience to draw on in my practice. I tend to be blunt and direct, but I've also been compared to a "warm scoop of cookie dough"... I am also very verbal and gabby, but they limit these bios to 640 characters - eek! - so for more about me please check my bio at North Star Wellness Center.

Hi. Thanks for taking time to review my page. The first step to getting the support you need is done. You are here and I hope you find the best fit for the work you want to do. I enjoy working with clients 8 and older, and I have extensive experience working with teens and adult women. I believe therapy should be collaborative, and appreciate when clients are open and willing to try new strategies outside of session.

Clients can expect to be treated with compassion and respect, and to be fully informed of the treatment process.
