I have 32 years of experience working with children, teens, adults, and families. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, earning my Masters degree at the University of Texas at Austin, graduating in 1993. I have been in private practice for the past 22 years. I have extensive clinical experience and I bring a variety of therapeutic modalities to my work with clients. I have an engaging, warm and playful manner to ease the stress of seeking help.
“Everything that happens to you is your teacher. The secret is to learn to sit at the feet of your own life and be taught by it.”—Polly B. Berends
That quote embodies my beliefs about how we create growth in ourselves. I use it to guide my work with clients. My goal is to help them gain greater Self awareness; to understand the effects of their thoughts, feelings and beliefs, and how they contribute to current challenges and experience of Life.
Our relationship is so important in making our work together meaningful and goal oriented. I will seek to put you at ease and to gather more information and understanding about what is challenging you. We will talk about your goals and how you would like to experience your life differently.
