Journey Toward Change

I'm Louise Dery, MSW, LMSW-C. For over 27 years, I have provided mental health services through my private practice. Today, I bring that experience directly to you through secure, convenient online-virtual therapy.

My approach to therapy is integrative. I rely on multiple evidence-based models—such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy , Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy—to tailor our sessions to your personal needs. Together, we will complete a thorough initial assessment, decide on your specific goals. We may use practical tools between-session homework to gently guide you along your personal journey toward change.
