As an experienced LCSW and LCDC, being a therapist with an honest approach with my clients is important to me. I believe in providing good therapeutic experiences for clients. My experiences include providing services to clients with mood disorders, the LGBTQIA community, clients with gender dysphoria and those affected by addiction issues. I have clinical experience in dealing with clients with trauma history as I am EMDR Certified. I am also Certified by World Professional Assoc. of Transgender Health (WPATH) with the Standards of Care (SOC) 8. I am The Headstrong Project Clinician working with veterans.
I assist clients with mood disorders, including depression, anxiety, bi-polar diagnosis and veterans. My experience with transgender clients and LGBT began in 2007 working for non-profit organizations. Services for transgender clients with gender dysphoria and are transitioning, through individual sessions as I follow the most current SOC by WPATH.
I am Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) and will help you through the DOT SAP process. I conduct alcohol and drug evaluations, SALCE assessments, DWI/DUI out of state evaluations. Resources are provided to assist you with your SAP process and educational classes.
