I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 7 years of experience helping clients achieve goals, reduce symptoms, and improve their ovearll mental health. My behavioral health and medical experience includes providing group and individual psychotherapy to clients suffering from addiction and behavioral issues; assisting clients with the ability to cope with anxiety and/or stress related to chronic illnesses; and addressing impactful life events in a safe manner, at your pace, to heal and resolve past trauma.
My expertise includes Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I have knowledge of practice with families across culture, race, and ethnicity, as well as the impact of domestic violence, child abuse, and chronic illness within those groups.
If you're seeking out therapy for the first time: welcome! I know how difficult that decision can be and how intimidating it seems to open up to a stranger. Email is the best way to reach me.
