My name is Michele Peterson, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is based on relationships and building upon the strengths of the client. My main areas of practice are Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma.
My approach
In my work with clients, I utilize a trauma-informed approach. I help clients through the modalities of CBT, DBT, EMDR, and concepts of mindfulness.
My focus
Clients who struggle with thoughts and feelings of not being enough. Clients who have experienced trauma that continues to show up in ineffective ways in their present life.
My communication style
The environment that I create for sessions with clients is open and relaxed.
My goals for you
Goals are discussed from the beginning and reviewed throughout our work together.
My first session with you
The first session is about getting to know each other. The first session will include questions about the client's life and what they need and want from therapy.
