A note from Serena

Hi. My name is Dr. Serena Thompson. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach is warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental, grounded in genuine curiosity and compassion. I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to walk alongside you as we explore your thoughts, feelings, and relationships, offering insight into the origins and meaning of your symptoms and life experiences. I specialize in an integrative, holistic approach to depression, anxiety, and life challenges. I blend Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Psychodynamic therapy, tailored to each client’s unique experiences.
