Reilly Mitchell

My approach to therapy is rooted in creating a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space where clients feel truly seen and heard. I believe therapy is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where my role is to guide and support clients as they explore their inner world, develop self-awareness, and work towards meaningful change. I view each client as a unique individual, and I tailor my approach to meet their specific needs, drawing from a variety of therapeutic modalities. I believe in the power of human connection and that healing happens in the context of a supportive therapeutic relationship. My style is collaborative and client-centered, emphasizing the importance of understanding each client’s perspective and working together to identify and achieve their goals. I approach therapy with a deep respect for my clients’ strengths and resilience, helping them build on these qualities as they navigate challenges. I am committed to fostering a space where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings openly, gain new insights, and develop practical skills to enhance their well-being. My belief is that therapy is not just about addressing problems but also about nurturing growth, self-compassion, and a greater sense of purpose in life.

I have worked primarily in school settings with diverse populations of children. I interned both in a preschool with a focus on behavioral interventions, as well as a middle and high school mentoring program geared towards at risk youth. I also have experience working with the unhoused population.

Outside of the office, I enjoy traveling, skiing, spending time with friends and family, reading, and playing with my cat, Maisie. I grew up in Annapolis, Maryland with my parents and sister. I value my close personal relationships and believe that connection is important for living a full and meaningful life. I received my Bachelors of Social work from Central Michigan University and my Masters of Social Work from the University of Michigan with a concentration in Interpersonal Practice in Integrated Health, Mental Health, and Substance Abuse. My passion for helping others and empathetic nature lead me to pursue a social work career and is still the driving force in everything I do.
