Taking the steps to find a therapist can be overwhelming, but making the decision to take those steps is the hardest part. Recognizing that there is a need for support is a sign of strength & courage. I believe that building a therapeutic relationship & providing a safe environment are the two most important elements in therapy. My goal is to establish those elements in efforts to guide & empower clients towards personal growth & achievement. My work with clients is supportive, nonjudgmental, collaborative, builds upon client strengths & aims to foster a change process. I utilize cognitive behavioral, strengths, solution focused & mindfulness approaches.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I also currently work as a School Social Worker, so I am aware of the many challenges adolescent & young adults are confronted with. I am able to provide insight into many school-related issues that arise for parents and their children.
It is important to know that you are not alone. The hardest step was deciding to look for a therapist. I look forward to working with you and supporting you. Most important, I look forward to witnessing your personal change process and all of your many future achievements.
