Hello,
My name is Heather and I graduated with my master’s in social work from Western Michigan University in 2018, specializing in trauma over the lifespan and TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for children and their caregivers). Since then, I have worked at my community mental health agency as a case manager and home-based therapist. I am trained in TF-CBT, fetal alcohol spectrum treatment, and Motivational Interviewing. I also have experience with CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) as well as family, play and art therapy. I have worked with children and their family’s experiencing anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and family conflict. With my clients, I focus on their strengths and empowering them in their journey. I believe that therapy is about holding a child’s or family’s story and walking alongside them in a non-judgmental and trauma-informed way.
Hello,
My name is Jessica Moskalewski and I am a fully licensed clinical social worker. After receiving my MSW degree from GVSU in 2017, I have served in therapy and assessment roles supporting youth, adults, and families. My professional areas of interest include perinatal mental health, anxiety, depression, parent/child attachment and health & wellness. I recognize therapy cannot be a “one size fits all” approach. I strive to be a safe place to develop coping skills for emotional regulation, overcome difficult life transitions and gain insight into mental health needs using a strengths-based, trauma-informed lens. I have experience in motivational interviewing, crisis management, EMDR, trauma and safety planning and look forward to being a part of your therapy journey!
