CECILIA POWERS, LCSW-S
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
As a passionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor, my experience allows me to understand the best ways to address each client’s needs in an effective manner. I have worked in Grayson County and the surrounding counties, for over the last 15 years. I am licensed in Texas and Oklahoma. I am a Certified Financial Social Worker.
I offer my services as a Parenting Facilitator, Child Custody Evaluator, and Adoption Evaluator to Grayson, Fannin, and Cooke Counties to help improve the lives of children and families in Texas; as I successfully and compassionately have in previous positions. As a member of the AFCC (Association of Family and Conciliation Courts), I continually train and explore options to best help families resolve their conflicts. I meet and follow the guidelines outlined in the Texas Family Code, Section 107.101, Subchapter D, related to Child Custody Evaluations.
I have extensive experience with objective documentation in my evaluations through finely honed and intuitive insight into family dynamics in its many forms. I have worked with birth families, adoptive families, and kinship families. I also have substantial experience with families of different socio-economic circumstances and have thoroughly assessed home environments for the best interests of the child(ren).
As is required in the updated Texas Family Code, I am an experienced LCSW-S with the necessary experience, education and training to perform Child Custody Evaluations, Adoption Evaluations and have met all of the criteria to be a Parenting Facilitator.
I have significant experience with supervising parent child visits. My associates and I will ensure that there is safety for the children involved with the parent child visits.
I am excited to help the children and families of Grayson, Fannin, and Cooke Counties to develop their court ordered custody evaluations, assist families with becoming forever families through adoption evaluations and help reunite families through supervised visitations.
