I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and a certified oncology social worker (OSW-C). I specialize in supporting individuals who are coping with a cancer diagnosis, have a loved one with cancer, or are grieving. I have been in the field for nearly a decade, but have worked in the oncology, palliative care and bereavement space for the past 6 years.
My approach to therapy is highly individualized. I approach all sessions with a sense of warmth, empathy and humility. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Meaning Centered Therapy in my practice, but remain flexible depending on the client needs.
First sessions typically will involve me getting to know more about what brings you to therapy now. I am typically present-focused, but do collect some background information that will help us work most effectively together. It is most important to me to start to build our working relationship and set goals and intentions for our time together.
