Anna Lisa Clark

My communication style

I tend to be straightforward in how I communicate, by giving respectful, honest, and clear feedback. I believe most people come wanting clarity, and I aim to offer insights and reflections in a way that feels understandable and useful. At the same time, I balance this with warmth and empathy so that you feel supported rather than judged.

My journey to mental healthcare

I always share with my clients the career path that I took as a clinical social worker. I have always balanced my work by working both in direct care in my private practice and as a leader in the behavioral health field, often directing programs and departments.

My goals for you

In our first session, I will listen to your reason for seeking therapy. From there, I will summarize what I hear from you, and together we will develop goals that you want to achieve in therapy. These goals are reviewed regularly, and we can decide what progress has been made, if they need to be tweaked, and if we need to add any additional goals.

Our first session

Our first session is for me to get to know you and why you are seeking therapy, and also for you to get to know about me and how we can work together. I like for you to leave feeling that there is hope in resolving your challenges, and feeling relief that your decision to seek therapy was a good one.
