Biography
Hello, my name is Clair, and I am a licensed social worker with both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Work. Since beginning my career in 2016, I have worked primarily with survivors of domestic and sexual violence, drawing on extensive training through PCAR and PCADV as a counselor and advocate for these populations. Currently, I am expanding my skills through training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
Treatment Philosophy

I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel comfortable being vulnerable as we work together to explore patterns and uncover the roots of behaviors. My ultimate goal is to help individuals cultivate a positive sense of self, gaining confidence in their ability to navigate life’s challenges.
Hobbies and Interests
