Achieving Positive Change Through Personal Struggle
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker specializing in helping adults pursue their potential in spite of experiencing trauma, anxiety, sexual/physical health issues, depression, life adjustments and substance use. I believe everyone possesses the ability to adapt and grow in the face of adversity. My goal is to provide a well-rounded and flexible approach to the therapeutic process while creating a warm, relaxing and empathetic atmosphere to help you achieve your goals.
I apply an integrated approach utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Supportive Therapy and Mindfulness techniques. I believe people are resilient and have the ability to make positive, lasting change and find a sense of happiness, balance and fulfillment in their lives.
I have experience working in specialized education programs, as well as forensic and community mental health programs providing consultation, psychotherapy and advocacy to adults while supporting families whose loved ones struggle with their mental health. I continue to engage in on-going professional development in the areas of anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma and life adjustments to better assist the individuals under my care.
