I have always been oriented towards uplifting others and creating space for others to be seen and heard. I received my MSW in 1997 and my training has centered around trauma-informed care, attachment theory, and mindfulness.
In the over 25 years that I have been a social worker, I specialized in foster care, adoption, and family systems. This has translated to a private practice that involves work with those experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and loss.
My practice is trauma-informed and grounded in an understanding of the impact of oppression on individuals and families.
I work with individual adults, adolescents and families. My clinical work has included the areas of foster care, adoption, anxiety and depression. My approach incorporates use of the AEDP model, trauma-informed care and mindfulness. My work is grounded in an understanding of the impact of systems of oppression on individuals and families.
I view therapy as a collaborative process that is grounded in a trusting alliance. It's a space for you to open yourself to increased self-awareness, shift troublesome thought patterns, tap into your intuition, and deepen self-acceptance. It can also lead to a better understanding of your relationships with others, how you relate and what you need in your relationships.
