Ali Fitzgibbon, LMSW
Licensed Master Social Worker
I am a compassionate therapist with over 20 years of experience within the field of mental health. I am dedicated to supporting my clients by staying present and committed to helping them achieve positive change. I offer a holistic approach to treating trauma, anxiety, depression, shame, eating disorders, body image concerns, PTSD, self-esteem/self-worth challenges, inner critic, anger management and passive aggressive behaviors. I implement CBT (cognitive behavior therapy) and IFS (Internal Family Systems) techniques with a strong focus on self-compassion.
During our time together I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space and will listen, guide and support you. I take a strength-based, positive-outcome approach. I will also incorporate mindfulness techniques to help develop a deeper sense of self awareness.
Life is full of ups and downs, we are all complex beings living in a complicated, stressful world. When we allow our internal self to thrive those challenging moments and experiences can become more manageable. It is my hope that I can support you in improving the way you feel physically, socially and emotionally. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to feel like yourself again.
