I completed my MSW degree at the University of Michigan in December 1994 with a concentration in interpersonal practical. My past experiences include working in both Wayne and Washtenaw County Community Mental Health Programs as an outpatient therapist. Common diagnoses I have treated include depression, anxiety, PTSD, adjustment disorders, and life transitions.
I approach clients initially from a person centered and strengths-based perspective while seeking to develop a partnership with them in setting treatment goals and types of interventions needed. I have significant experience in treating individuals experiencing life transitions, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and anxiety.
The first step in a first session for me is providing a calm, and welcoming environment while allowing the client to tell their story and identify their reason for seeking therapy at this time.
