Hello, my name is Cheryl Rittfeldt. I am a multilingual, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. I believe that healing is a collective venture that requires honest caring without judgment. I cooperatively assist clients in identifying their goals. Rather than adopting one methodology for all individuals and issues, I gather from a variety of methods to generate a suited strategy. I have experience working with young children, adolescents, teens, couples, and adults. Hola, Yo hablo Espanol

My clinical expertise is addiction/substance abuse treatment (both user and impacted family members) as I've worked in both inpatient & outpatient settings. I am very familiar with 12-step recovery but it is not my only tool. I can provide evaluation/assessment and potential referral to rehab if needed. My style is hands on & solution-oriented -- my goal is that you leave our sessions feeling empowered, motivated and have more coping skills to manage your life. There is no reason why you should continue to suffer or struggle; you deserve to feel better & develop confidence in yourself.

The stories that we tell about ourselves and our experiences are our realities, and these realities shape how we perceive our past, current, and future experiences in our lives. Sometimes, these stories do not allow us to feel the level of happiness and fulfillment in which we desire due to problems dominating our stories. It is my goal to support individuals, families, couples, and groups in developing a sense of hope and possibility that were not previously there. This hope provides space for unique possible outcomes where these individuals can develop a story that includes happiness and life fulfillment.

You are not alone. Seeking help is the first step to change. Establishing Trust between client and counselor is the most important step in the therapeutic process. My goal as the counselor is to establish trust and provide a safe place for you to explore your thoughts, feelings and concerns to a professional unbiased listener. I can teach you the tools to start feeling better and/or accept what you cannot change and regain peace and comfort and a sense of purpose despite problem areas.

I work with adolescents, adults and the elderly who are going through challenges associated with life cycle changes such as relationship problems, school or job related problems or dealing with chronic or acute medical problems. I work from a family systems perspective and often work with family members of those experiencing the kinds of issues I mentioned above. Many of the clients I work with present with depression, anxiety, anger, significant loss , couples issues and/or parenting issues.
