Brenda R. DeEsso, LCSW-R

Meet Brenda -

I believe we as humans are on our individual journeys toward living our life as true to ourselves as we can. Sometimes we can get stuck either through fear of change, past life experiences, confusion in what we want – to name a few. I too, continue on this journey myself as it is ever evolving.  I will support and guide you on your journey, side by side, as we are all in this together.

I have been practicing clinical social work for over fifteen years. My experience includes working with those experiencing anxiety, depression, marital and non-marital relationship challenges, young adults embarking on their new beginnings, those highly motivated to see their personal goals met whether it be in their career, relationships, sorting through past experiences which have influenced current life circumstances. Assisting teenagers and their families in navigating the adolescent years and the many changes and developments that occur has been a constant part of my practice since the start of my career. My work with my clients encourages developing and/or maintaining self-empowerment and self-worth.

WHAT BRENDA IS KNOWN FOR:

Clinical competence. Enjoying laughter. Compassionate approach in my therapy practice. Going for runs to clear my mind and body. Transparency and authenticity. A love of nature and quiet, peaceful time. Continual learning through reading, trainings, knowledge of others. Sweet tooth for candy!  

TOGETHER WE CAN WORK ON YOUR JOURNEY …
