Great to meet you!
As a Clinical Social Worker my goal when working with clients is that each individual has a positive experience and is able to utilize the skills that they have gained from the therapeutic process as they began to navigate smoothly with their individual journey to wellness.
Being a clinician is rewarding because I am given the opportunity to help someone get through a tough time in their life by providing a safe outlet that promotes wellness in their lives and hope as they continue on their path of greatness by implementing the tools gained from therapy.
Working with me is beneficial and rewarding to clients because I believe that what is from the heart reaches the heart. Building a trusting therapeutic relationship is essential to therapy and my approach is genuine and empathic as my goal is for clients to feel comfortable when working with me.
At the beginning of my professional career I worked in the Criminal Justice field, and it was challenging to give ideas and suggestions to better help the population of juveniles that were struggling with recidivism. Desiring to make community wide changes and help youth advocate for themselves I began to pursue higher education in social work. Now I am able to be a social change for at risk youth and adolescents and better serve other populations that are going through life issues.
I am privileged and honored to be chosen to be a part of individuals/families' lives as they start their therapeutic journey. My job is to give every client a welcoming experience where they can be comfortable and share anything.
