Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
About Duncan
As a licensed therapist with nearly three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My practice focuses on helping clients navigate stress, relationship dynamics, self-esteem concerns, and interpersonal communication difficulties.
I bring a compassionate and direct approach to addressing issues such as social anxiety, workplace challenges, mood disorders, and personal growth. My expertise spans working with diverse populations, including young adults, older adults experiencing midlife transitions, and individuals managing anxiety, panic attacks, and relationship complexities.
My therapeutic style emphasizes understanding individual experiences, developing practical coping strategies, and supporting clients in building healthier emotional patterns. I am committed to creating a supportive environment where clients can explore their challenges, develop resilience, and work towards meaningful personal transformation.
Whether you’re struggling with communication barriers, relationship dynamics, or personal growth obstacles, I aim to provide thoughtful, personalized guidance tailored to your unique journey.
