I have been a LCSW for over 20 years and I have spent my career working as a psychotherapist and medical social worker. I love working clients who are struggling with mood disorders, work and famiily issues, and those with chronic health conditions.
I take an approach that includes motivational interviewing, CBT, and that is solution-focused. I specialize in treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis. I have a cerifications in Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Perinatal mood disorders and Perinatal loss. I enjoy working with both children and adults; and I focus my practice to work with teens and women.
I ask a lot of questions about your past and present issues; to help prioritize your needs and goals for therapy. I am empowering and encouraging and I am supportive at every step of the process. I feel like the most important thing is to have the client direct the session. Ultimately, my goal in the first session is to get to know YOU, and to see how I can help you.
