Great to meet you!
I am licensed to practice clinical social work in Minnesota (#16592), North Dakota (#5798), and Texas (#60361 - supervisor designation). I practice therapy via telehealth part-time and teach full-time.
I am first and foremost good at listening and observing. I have been working within the childhood trauma and psychotherapy field for 20+ years and have learned that you know you best. I am brainspotting practitioner. This is a processing intervention that works with your brain and body together. I have seen this specific intervention work well at opening doors for great personal and professional growth in the people I work with and continue to learn more about the neurobiological aspects of wellness.
I am a clinical supervisor for those seeking to take the clinical exam in social work. My philosophy of supervision is one where reflective practices drive the learning process while grounded in evidence within our field. I work with supervisees to not only look at their practice but strive to be the best clinical social worker they can. This often includes reviewing theoretical basis for interventions, case studies, and a development of a the supervisees practice philosophy with an emphasis in cultural competence.
