Hi there, I'm Russell!

I’m a trauma‑informed LCSW supporting adults with anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, relationship patterns, and major life transitions. My work is structured and collaborative, using CBT, DBT‑informed skills, mindfulness, and strengths‑based approaches to build coping skills and create lasting change.

My focus

Focused on each client’s goals, I provide clear guidance, grounded support, and practical strategies that reduce overwhelm and strengthen progress. Every session centers on what matters most to the client’s growth and stability.

My approach

I’m an LCSW focused on anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, and life transitions. I offer a warm, direct, practical approach to help clients make sense of their experiences, feel grounded, and build usable skills. I integrate CBT, mindfulness, and trauma‑informed care to support real progress.
