Ann Legierski

About me

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters in Social Work and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I have worked with multiple populations providing therapy for individuals, couples, families and the LGBTQIA community for over 8 years. I work with all ages, cultures, beliefs and sexual orientations. My therapeutic approach is integrated and includes a number of evidenced based treatment modalities, such as, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and psychoeducation. For the past several years, I have worked at a dual diagnosis treatment center specializing in treating substance abuse use disorders with co-occurring mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, bi-polar disorder, personality disorders, as well as behavioral issues.

Strengthening relationships and creating a healthy sense of self and growth toward maximum personal potential is an integral part of the work I do with each individual. Because each person is unique, the treatment plan is specifically tailored to facilitate progress toward personal goals and objectives. Each treatment success hinges on the development of a strong therapeutic rapport, my practice focuses on providing a safe, non-judgmental and nurturing environment.

I know that change is an ever present constant and universally necessary for growth. When the opportunity for change is ripe, I am here to provide education, encouragement and fortify your courage to stay the course to navigate your personal journey called life!

“Everybody has a life purpose. Whatever is seeking you, that’s what you seek. That what’s calling you. That’s your life purpose.” -Sabine Bulhmann

I look forward to working with you!
