I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 42 years of experience. I have worked with a variety of different issues, including addiction, sexual/physical trauma, PTSD, depression/anxiety, low self-esteem, Veteran's concerns, and couple/relationship problems. With a broad background in a variety of psychotherapy treatments, I try to tailor my approach to the needs of the individual. There are some individuals who are struggling with stressful life events, while others have a difficult time even defining what bothers them.
I have been increasingly focused on providing couples counseling. I am comfortable with most conditions since I manage mental health units in large hospitals. Establishing a good rapport is necessary for treatment. One has to feel comfortable and safe to share. Couples often feel hopeful after working with me.
I think I entered this profession due to my own problems and difficulties. The profession probably picked me versus my choosing it. I often see it as a calling.
