Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Accepting clients Last Updated 2 days ago

Hello, I'm Carisa, and I'm a licensed therapist with a decade of experience in the field of mental health. My approach to therapy is collaborative, strengths-oriented, and feedback-informed. I believe in offering care that is evidence-based, meaning all of the interventions I use have been proven effective by rigorous peer-reviewed research studies. I use these modalities in innovative ways to provide you with highly personalized sessions that target your individual needs and preferences.

Some of the techniques I am trained in include EMDR, CBT, DBT, narrative exposure, motivational interviewing, cognitive processing, and parent-child interaction therapy. As a certified clinical trauma specialist, I have substantial training and experience in treating complex and acute PTSD. Additionally, I work with individuals coping with depression, anxiety, substance use, grief, and childhood-specific concerns.

I see children ages 5 and up, as well as adults and families. I am passionate about walking the healing path with others because I believe that everyone has a right to live a thriving life. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings, and work towards meaningful change.

If you are interested in working with me or have any questions, please feel free to reach out! I offer free 15-minute phone consultations so we can both feel confident that I'm the right fit before diving in. I look forward to the possibility of working together and supporting you on your journey to wellness.
