Getting to know Lafarro Williams

Hi there, I'm Lafarro! My name is Lafarro Williams, and I am a licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Washington state. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Arizona State University Polytechnic Campus. I have over 7 years of experience assisting individuals in managing their everyday lives by treating mental health and substance concerns using therapeutic approaches and practical interventions. I love to listen attentively and responsibly to every individual, which offers me the honor to work with them. My approach I enjoy using a client-centered approach, which focuses on the belief that the client-not the counselor-is the expert on their own thoughts, feelings, experiences, and problems. I also specialize in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches to identify and treat dysfunctional thinking that leads to dysfunctional emotions or behaviors. By changing their thoughts, people can change how they feel and what they do. My focus I feel my skills and expertise are best utilized with individuals who struggle to manage symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, and substance use, as well as those in need of learning basic skills. For the last 4 years, I have worked with those diagnosed with serious mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and bipolar disorder. My communication style I utilize a collaborative communication style when providing therapy, where the client and I work together to understand their issues and create a treatment plan. I use active listening skills to truly understand the client's experiences and perspective. I also practice empathy, openness, and shared decision-making, and I have a mutual respect for clients-that is the foundation of my therapeutic practice.
