I am Sheresa Elliot, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist (A). I strive to understand how environments impact a person's behaviors and help them to address the emotional challenges and mental barriers. I work with individuals to explore how trauma, life changes, relationships and stressors impact a person's behavior. My primary therapy models are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Brief Solutions Focused Therapy (SFT), Child Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I use a reflective approach to challenge clients' reflective capacity and ability to explore how experiences shape their perceptions. I also incorporate strengths-based approaches into practice to support individuals in identifying natural supports, unique skills and talents to cope with traumas or concerns in a healthy way.
