Are you wanting to make some life changes or feeling stuck? Or maybe you’re having trouble with difficult feelings or anxiety. I see children, teenagers, and adults who struggle with attention disorders, depression, anxiety, multicultural issues, trauma, interpersonal problems, and transition. I especially enjoy seeing people of color, students, professionals, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. Self-compassion is one of the driving forces in my practice of helping others. My goal is to help you through your life's journey while using empathy, connection, and laughter.

Looking for a therapist takes a lot of courage. Whatever it is that has motivated you to take this step, I'm glad you are here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in anxiety, relationships and trauma. As a therapist I aim to create a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore areas of pain and move towards integrative healing. With clients I spend time unpacking things like anger, shame, people-pleasing and perfectionism, processing how early childhood experiences and family dynamics impact current relationships, and exploring how to safely connect with, care for and communicate emotions.

Finding balance in an evolving world full of social and emotional obstacles can be exhausting. We can find ourselves stuck in patterns that no longer serve our well being. Identifying new strategies to cope with uncertainties in life can help you regain your emotional equilibrium and ease discomfort. Therapy is a safe place to practice making meaningful connection, to expand your capacity to problem solve, and an opportunity to become a more confident, empowered decision maker. My approach to therapy is collaborative, creative, and compassionate incorporating traditional talk therapy and art therapy interventions.

Therapy is an opportunity to help people diminish pain, cope with challenges, and gain support through adverse experiences. Additionally, it challenges personal growth through insight development, compassion and attentiveness. I have 16 years of experience and my areas of expertise are anxiety disorders, religious trauma, perinatal and postpartum health, couples therapy and chronic illness. I often work with individuals struggling to cope with the day to day and who want to align their beliefs and values with the people around them; whether that's the family, workplace or a faith institution.

You made it! You may not feel like you’re making it right now-and that’s totally okay. However, take a moment to reflect that you’ve made it to THIS moment in search for hope, understanding, growth, and relief. You’ve already made it through frustration (scrolling through hundreds of strangers faces to find a therapist), hopelessness, sadness, anxiety, trauma, and much more. I want to walk beside you through the difficult feelings you’ve been experiencing to help you create a life that you don’t just make it through, but actually ENJOY!

Do you feel safe being who you really are? It's our birthright to be seen, be loved and belong. But if your identity has been marginalized or you belong to more than one culture, it can be challenging to reconcile who you are with others' expectations of who you should be. Maybe you're a helping professional who gives so much there’s nothing left for you. Perhaps you grew up in a religious tradition that no longer fits you, or no tradition at all, and you're seeking a connection with something greater than yourself. Maybe you've tried talk therapy and it wasn't enough. Maybe you've thought, There's gotta be another way.

I offer a judgment-free space for expression and provide an atmosphere that promotes safety, vulnerability, empowerment, and growth for clients. My primary goal is to utilize techniques that will best fit individual clients' needs and allow him/her/they to reach his/her/their goals successfully. I seek to invoke clients to internalize situations in a healthy context and provide an environment conducive to encouraging self-awareness, self-reflection, self-regulation, and self-correction. I believe every client is unique and requires an individualized approach; in doing so, establishing rapport is essential to the work we do together.

My name is Savannah Corey (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I utilize a person-centered approach to meet clients where they are, and believe we are the expert in our own lives. Therapy should be a place where you feel really safe to talk about anything, and I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client is a partnership where all people involved strive to reach the same goals. As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I help clients connect thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to "stuck points" in thoughts processes so that negative thoughts can be reframed.

Being autistic means existing in a sometimes perplexing and frustrating world that largely caters much more to the neurotypical brain. Over time this can manifest in a host of issues, ranging from depression and anxiety to social isolation and loneliness. The good news is that your brain possesses hidden strengths and abilities that can more than make up for these supposed deficits. To this end, I use creative approaches to draw these skills out and teach my clients how to apply their strengths in the areas where they are struggling.

My practice is dedicated to helping individuals effectively navigate life challenges. My approach is non-judgmental and supportive. I strongly believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship. Because of the vulnerability involved in exploring your feelings, it is imperative that you feel safe and trusting of me. Together, we will process your feelings. This often leads to better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and better coping skills. My focus is to collaborate with you on creating your personal goals and to offer you a comfortable environment to work through issues that are causing you unhappiness.
