Josie Rhoads is a compassionate Clinical Social Worker/Therapist (LCSW) committed to helping individuals of all ages, from preteens to adults, navigate through their emotional challenges. Inspired by the belief that 'an arrow cannot be shot forward until it is pulled back,' she understands the importance of perspective in overcoming setbacks. With extensive experience across various settings, Josie recognizes that her clients' primary desire is simple: to feel better. She takes the time to understand each client's unique story, providing a non-judgmental space where they can explore their feelings and regain hope. Specializing in trauma, Josie acknowledges that trauma is not always synonymous with PTSD; it can often be subtle, underlying deeper emotional issues. She utilizes effective therapeutic modalities such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TFCBT) and EMDR, the latter being a distinctive approach that allows clients to resolve emotional conflicts without extensive verbal detail, tapping into the brain's natural healing capabilities. Acknowledging the common reluctance to seek help, Josie strives to create a comfortable and safe environment where individuals are accepted for who they are. Her goal is to accompany clients on their healing journey and guide them toward a future filled with hope and wellness. When they are ready, she is here to support them on their path to feeling better.
