Therapy is a very unique experience and when you reach out for help it should fit who you are and what you need. One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is creating that fit for each of my clients. For some people reaching out for help is easy and for others it is one of the most difficult things that have ever had to do. No matter where you are on that spectrum I feel confident that together we can find what it is that you are seeking. My approach to therapy is a present focused and a goal oriented style. I work with my clients to explore their current life and find what it is that is out of sync. At times we need to look to the future to see how things could play out and at times we need to look to the past to see where things may have gone off track. But the main goal is getting you peace in your today. I have had the pleasure to work with a diverse population in my career and there is a broad range of issues that I can assist with. So if you are in search of some guidance and support, I would like to help you find a place in your life that makes you feel glad to be alive :) I am a Masters Level Addiction Professional (MCAP) and have extensive background working with addictions. **Please contact me for live session availability.

Hello and Welcome! My name is Mardi Mitchell, MSW, LCSW, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience counseling people from diverse backgrounds towards improved life balance and overall mental wellbeing. I've worked with clients with a wide range of issues including: stress and anxiety, depression, loneliness, grief and loss, trauma, forgiveness, caregiver issues and co-dependency. I take a client centered approach to therapy and provide a warm, safe, accepting and non-judgmental space for clients to share their feelings and desires. I develop the treatment plan together with the client based on their specific and unique needs and circumstances. Together we can identify problematic issues and then develop a plan with set goals towards improvement in those areas that are distressing for you. Various clinical approaches (see below) may be implemented based on each clients' specific situation and needs. I believe it takes great courage to reach out for support. It is the first step in improving your situation and I would be honored to support you as you take the next steps toward healing and improved wellbeing.
