Sydney Nelson MSW, LSW

Sometimes clients can get the wrong idea about what therapy is from TV shows and movies. Some believe they will lie down on a couch and tell their therapist all their problems, wants, and dreams and that the therapist will have all the answers. Therapy with me is a team effort and together we will navigate this journey.

I utilize an individualistic approach throughout the therapeutic process to accommodate each client’s unique experience, needs, and goals for therapy with collaboration with each client. I utilize clear communication about the roles of the therapist and client and how each client is the expert on themselves.

I value the therapeutic relationship with the aim to create a safe and comfortable environment where clients can be themselves, build coping skills, and achieve their goals.
