Introduction

My passion has always been working to improve the quality of life for others. I have spent over 25 years working in multiple roles, within a number of community practices servicing adolescent females, women, families, and at-risk populations. My experience includes clinical social work, case management, advocacy,  probation, foster care, residential treatment, health education, diversion programs, and youth development (K-12).  My work experience has provided me a greater understanding of the intricate issues affecting women, youth, and families, as well as greater insight into addressing emotional, behavioral, and psychological needs. The two most important components of therapy are the therapist/client relationship and an individualized treatment approach that matches clients needs. I believe a strong therapeutic alliance embodies trust, safety, empathy, compassion, respect, communication, boundaries, and unconditional support. My primary focus is on women and adolescent female mental health, including anxiety and mood disorders, self-esteem parent/child communication, pregnancy/postpartum depression, domestic violence, divorce/co-parenting, grief, and trauma,  I integrate multiple therapeutic approaches, including, but not limited to: Cognitive Behavioral, Psycho-Dynamic, Conflict Resolution, Trauma Focused, and Strength Based.  I am a woman. a daughter, a mother, a partner, and a friend. I am human. I understand the heart and soul of a woman, a girl. Collectively, we are the same. I share in many of the same experiences and emotions. I understand your fears, joys, griefs, pains, and sorrows. I understand the anxiety and the worries. and the emotional highs and lows. I understand the insecurities and moments of self-doubt. I understand being the do-er and the selfless giver. I understand what it feels to be tired...exhausted. You are not alone. I see you and I want you to know- YOU MATTER. ​I chose the path of clinical practice because I strongly believe in the healing powers of relationships, empathy, compassion, self-care, mindful processing, and empowered communication. I am flexible with my schedule and do my best to accommodate my client’s needs.  I truly look forward to the opportunity to hear more about you. Sincerely, Skarlet Forwood, LCSW
