Hello, I'm Brandy, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Addiction Specialist with an MSW and over 12 years of experience in mental health and substance use. I specialize in helping individuals navigate lifeâs challenges through cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and trauma-informed care. My approach also includes healing the child within, grief support, and addiction education.
My ideal clients are those feeling overwhelmed by stress, struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, and poor coping strategies, or facing issues related to substance use. I understand the feelings of isolation and hopelessness that can arise during difficult times, as I am also a person in long-term recovery. My approach is empathetic and supportive, creating a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions.
Together, we can identify your strengths, develop effective coping mechanisms, and work toward achieving your personal goals. Whether youâre seeking support for mental health concerns, substance use, or simply need someone to listen and encourage you, I am here to guide you on your journey toward healing and fulfillment. You donât have to face these challenges aloneâlet's work together to find your path.
