As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a professional background in Child Welfare, I have had the opportunity to work with diverse clients across all stages of life.

My experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I believe that each person brings unique strengths, abilities, and experiences to their journey, and I strive to create a supportive, compassionate, and collaborative space where you can feel heard and understood.

Currently accepting new clients.

Welcome! I'm Geneva, and I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely supported, understood, and accepted. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and attachment theory to help clients better understand themselves, strengthen their relationships, and develop practical skills for everyday life.

I enjoy working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for change, my goal is to help you build confidence, discover your strengths, and create meaningful progress at a pace that feels right for you.

Being vulnerable and allowing yourself to seek support when needed is a sign of strength. Together in therapy, we can continue to build on those strengths and learn to create a life worth living. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with specialization in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and training in different therapeutic modalities. I have had the privilege of working with children, families, and adults in all stages of life in both outpatient and inpatient settings who are having mental health difficulties with everyday stressors, life/stage transitions, mental illness, and terminal illness.

My approach to psychotherapy is always client centered with an emphasis on the clients focus and areas they wish to address. I have worked in counseling and psychotherapy for 38 years in hospitals, clinics, emergency rooms and private practice and have created, developed and been clinical director for many Intensive Outpatient Programs for Mental Health & Dual Diagnosis.

Getting people past anxiety disorders is a passion of mine andI specialize in anxiety and sports performance anxiety and all forms of addictions. I work with teenagers and young adults dealing with academic, sports and achievement areas.

I work with parents and adults on healthy launching and individuation of their children. With the ever emerging world of technology and media I work with individuals on Video Gaming Addiction, Internet Addiction and Pornography Addiction and poor regulation of screen time which leads to depressed mood, anxiety and poor productivity especially in younger people.
