Override Hero Title

Hello!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over eighteen years of experience supporting individuals through challenging times. My clinical practice is shaped by a diverse background in teaching, mental health counseling, community-based social work, domestic violence consulting, and family case planning within the Family Treatment Rehabilitation program. Throughout my career, I have worked with at-risk children and adolescents, parents, families affected by mental health issues, survivors of intimate partner violence, and the geriatric population. I love working with a wide range of groups, and I find it especially rewarding to focus on empowering my clients.

To maintain personal balance and stay inspired outside of my career, I fill my free time with nature walks, travel, cultural events, and my morning yoga routine.

I am dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging transitions, by connecting the dots. I work with clients navigating stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and grief-helping them build resilience and reconnect with their sense of self. My approach centers on fostering self-love, exploring life, purpose, and cultivating forgiveness as pathways to healing. I believe that meaningful change happens when you feel truly seen and understood. I create a warm affirming space where your unique identity and values are honored. Particularly drawing on faith-centered perspectives when that resonates with your journey.

Reaching out for support is one of the bravest things you can do — and I'm honored to be part of your journey. I work with individuals living with anxiety, chronic illness and pain, and substance use and addiction. I believe every person carries their own resilience, and my role is to help you access it. My practice is built on trust, warmth, and a deep commitment to your growth. I show up for my clients with honesty and the genuine conviction that meaningful change is always within reach

I am a social worker and a nurse. I use a humanistic and holistic approach to therapy but most importantly I use your strengths as the client to pursue the health that you desire. Within all of us is the desire to be happy and healthy. Life can give us obstacles that keep us from achieving that but together we can find a way to navigate the obstacles and also acquire tools that will help you achieve your own goals. I am so happy you have made this first step.

I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience, including emergency care. I am passionate about mental health and providing holistic, patient-centered treatment through a combination of medication management and therapeutic support. My goal is to help patients feel heard, stabilized, and empowered in their care.

My name is Caitlin Clouse. Licensed Clinical Social Worker is just one of the many titles I carry. First and foremost I am a mom, wife and daughter. Through my own lived experiences—including an estranged relationship with a parent during childhood, as well as experiencing secure attachment within a strong and supportive family system—I witnessed firsthand the impact that difficult and unhealthy relationships can have on an individual’s emotional regulation and overall well-being. I also experienced how supportive relationships and co-regulation within a family system can foster resilience, confidence, and motivation.

These experiences is what led to my decision to attend Adelphi's MSW program. I have always had a passion to work with adolescents to help them feel understood and validated.

I began my career providing in-home support to children and families experiencing crisis. Through this work, I developed a strong foundation in supporting individuals and families through challenging circumstances and transitions. Through my practice in building positive relationships with adolescents, I have been able to assist them in organizing their thoughts and communicating them more effectively to their family and friends. I have been able to see first hand how treating them with dignity and respect allows them to grow their perspectives and become better listeners, which enhanced the family system as whole. No matter the current dynamics of one's family, we all come from one, which is why utilizing Structural Family Therapy and ACT has been helpful in my practice with not just families but individuals as well. Whether you're a parent, daughter, son, brother or sister, I'm here to help.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive, and affirming space where you can

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I’m glad you’re here! Therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’ve been carrying a lot on your own. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can exhale and feel understood. Together, we’ll move at your pace and focus on tools and insights that help you feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again. My main focus is female clients ages 15-30 who are struggling with anxiety and depression.
