Are you feeling "stuck," indecisive, depressed, or anxious? We all face life difficulties that limit our skills and tools for managing our emotions, reducing symptoms, building relationships, and having a sense of self-worth. Understanding, learning what is happening in your brain, and practicing skills and coping mechanisms are vital to living a worthwhile life. I have spent the last few years assisting clients, building their toolbox, understanding the emotional system, and improving their lives.
As a clinical social worker, I can support you in your journey of feeling better and getting control of your life back. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy (TF-CBT) are some modalities to address the concerns. Individual, family, and group therapy are available as needed.
I will provide support, active listening, and validation in every meeting. The therapy sessions are a safe space, free of judgment and full of respect and encouragement, where the clients can be themselves. I see the therapeutic relationship as a team, where you are an expert in your life. Email me to schedule a 15-minute consultation call today.
