what is a licensed clinical social worker?
A Licensed Clinical Social Worker is a provider who has a Master's in Social Work and has also had clinical experience in the field. This means that the therapist was supervised while treating patients directly over an extended period of time. Social Workers address their patients from a strengths based perspective, meaning that they utilize a patient's own strength and resiliency in order to assist them when dealing with difficulties.
Incorporating Faith
For those who are interested in working through the lens of their Christian faith, Denise is well equipped to help guide them on their spiritual path. This can be beneficial for those who want to include their spirituality as an integral part of their treatment.
