Therapy is the fight for autonomy over our decisions and our strengths-based connections in the aftermath. The universal social work tradition is to build practice based on reciprocity, continuity of care, consent, and affirmation. Therapists build supportive networks through community-based knowledge, interrelationships and love. We labor for access to self determination over our own identities and communities at large. We take a holistic view of the self through a social context, and work to create open and dynamic spaces and roles for ourselves and each other. This must include confronting stigma, isolation and disconnection.
I am ecstatic to provide mental health support through authentic, affirming, and aware relationships that embody connection, safety, and warmth. I strive to build genuine connections with my clients by understanding their personal motivators for acceptance and change, and building trust by reinforcing their goals rather than my own agenda.
I look forward to working with you. Please feel free to reach out to me regarding my therapeutic style, approaches, modalities, payment structures, or for any other questions or concerns. Additionally, due to being an LSW, I am supervised by Leah Cohen, LCSW.
