Great to meet you!

My goal as a social worker is to help individuals, of all ages, in need improve the quality of their lives and their well-being. Problems that I might help people with may include behavioral, health, and social issues.

My approach to therapy

As your therapist I am genuinely engaged in the therapeutic relationship and have unconditional positive regard for my clients. I feel empathy for my clients, and clearly communicate these attitudes. As far as I am concerned, we are in this together.

What you can expect from me

I can provide clients with individual or couples therapy, as well as referral opportunities for social rehabilitation and crisis intervention. I can help you with transitioning to life changing circumstances, adapt, and flourish.
