I am an Eagle Scout and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 20 years of experience providing therapy to adolescents and adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I specialize in a broad range of issues, including depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, anger management, and ADHD. My office dog, Schultz, will also be part of our sessions, offering additional comfort and support as we work together.
My approach blends modern, evidence-based therapeutic techniques (e.g., Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy) with the wisdom of Stoic philosophy to help clients improve their well-being and achieve their goals. My style is interactive, engaging, and incorporates a healthy dose of humor along with thought-provoking questions to encourage self-reflection and growth.
Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We'll discuss what brings you to therapy, what you're hoping to achieve, and begin mapping out a path forward.
You can expect a relaxed, collaborative, and solution-focused approach. We'll identify your strengths and develop a plan to help you reach your goals. By the end of our session, you'll have a good understanding of my style and a preliminary roadmap for our work together.
