As a therapist, I look forward to establishing strong working rapport with my clients. I have clinical experience working with children and teens from my years as a school social worker, supporting students and their families in various areas including, but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma, LGBTQ, and relationship conflicts. I have worked with clients from early elementary school age throughout the lifespan and have personal understanding about the sometimes complex struggles of changing family needs.
I believe in the strengths-based perspective, utilizing tools such as CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, solution-focused therapy and play therapy. I help my clients identify and understand any triggers and work toward developing a choice of coping skills appropriate to and acceptable by the client.
I have experience as foster parent support specialist, as an adoptive parent and as a former foster parent. This included gaining great insight on how to best support needs regarding attachment issues, cross-cultural and transracial needs within a family, as well as grief and loss issues. This life experience is the reason I chose to become a social worker.
