Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW Specialties • Insurance & Fees • LocationsThe most important relationship we will ever have is the one with ourselves, nurtured and cultivated over a lifetime. Finding the right therapist with which to partner in this journey is an essential foundation for building awareness, and ultimately growth and healing. As both a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, and Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, my approach is holistic, integrative and patient-centered. I bring a compassionate and collaborative approach in working with adults who have a history of anxiety, burnout, depression, insomnia, living with a chronic disease, managing life transitions and those seeking their deeper purpose. I specialize in and resonate with empaths and highly sensitive people to help them manage and navigate strategies for operating in a challenging world.
After earning her Master’s Degree in Social Work, Lenore went on to study holistic nutrition and lifestyle medicine at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, among further studies, to better understand the dynamic of mind-body-soul connection as well as how we heal. Lenore believes that all of the ways we nourish ourselves, through right nutrition, connection with others, movement and fitness, mindfulness, restful sleep, spirituality, as well as the right kind of therapeutic support, helps create a dynamic of healing and wholeness for the body and soul. I also offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I).
Using a combination of therapeutic approaches like Solution-focused therapy, Mindfulness-Based-Stress-Reduction, CBT, CBT for insomnia, Strength-based therapy, among others, Lenore empowers individuals to get unstuck, and cultivate a deeper sense of self-compassion, growth and healing.
