About Misty
Hi, I’m Misty, and it’s truly an honor to partner with you for restored hope, peace, and connection. Whether you desire to improve your ability to communicate with people in your life, become more positive toward yourself and your future, or heal from hurt, I'm here to help you recognize your worth and experience the growth you are striving for. I became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker 8 years ago and have been working in the social work field for 19 years. I have experience working with adults, teenagers, and individuals who have experienced trauma, as well as those struggling with anxiety and depression. I utilize primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. My approach is supportive, strengths-based, and goal-oriented. I help clients navigate trauma, attachment issues, life transitions, depression, anxiety, and more-sharing strategies that can be practiced in between sessions. Taking these steps to a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process. Read more Show less
