About me
I am an experienced clinical social worker and business owner who is dedicated to helping clients cope with anxiety, depression, OCD , ADHD and so much more .
Hi there ! i am the founder and lead therapist at Love Yourself First Counseling, LCSW, PLLC. I specialize in working with older adolescents/ teens, adults, and the elderly facing challenges such as ADHD ( adults only ) OCD, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief from loss or separation and the many hardships faced by life transitions and adjustments . My goal is to guide clients through their hardships and equip them with essential coping skills to thrive in all aspects of their lives.
Together, we'll explore how your thoughts influence your feelings and behaviors, empowering you to develop the skills necessary for personal growth. In our sessions, I frequently utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help guide our work. During our first meeting, we will discuss what brought you to therapy and collaboratively determine the best strategies for your progress. CBT focuses on understanding how your thoughts impact your emotions and experiences. Throughout our time together, I will help you challenge those thoughts, empowering you to cultivate more positive feelings and outcomes.
In addition I also have a background in Long term care and I have experience helping families, patients and caregivers adjust to transitioning to a long-term care setting, or Adjusting to a new diagnosis, such as dementia.
