Greetings! My name is Kasia (Kash-uh), and I am looking forward to meeting you! I graduated with my Master’s in Social Work in 2016 and became a licensed clinical social worker in 2018. I received my undergraduate degree in psychology, with a minor in substance abuse. I am also a certified grief counseling specialist (CGCS), and have experience in working with bereavement.
My approach to therapy is tailored to my clients and their specific concerns to which they seek assistance for. I specialize in grief, anxiety, depression, PTSD, low self-esteem, anger, and many other stressors that affect overall well-being. I have practiced CBT, DBT, TF-CBT, solution-focused, among other modalities. If I am not confident in the approach the client is seeking, I will be transparent and direct you to who is more qualified. What you can expect from my sessions is quite simple, and that would be unconditional genuine support. Like I stated above, I am honest and transparent, and I will help assistant/guide you through whatever brings you into my sessions.
I strive to create a safe space, where you feel comfortable to peel back those difficult layers that may have been stuck for quite some time. I understand counseling may be difficult, especially on an online platform such as this, but I can assure you that I will never pressure you to discuss the topics that you may have imprisoned. You are in charge of the trajectory of our sessions and are in complete control the direction we take each time we meet. No issue is too big or too small, we’ll talk about them and work together to accomplish the goals you have set for yourself.
At the end of the day, my goal as a therapist is to provide the tools to help improve your quality of life, and then there after, help your quality of life maintain longevity.
