Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than a decade of experience working to improve lives and relationships with individuals and couples. Childhood trauma, the loss of confidence, divorce - the impact of these life issues can be overwhelming if not unpacked and addressed.

My objectives are to partner with you in personalized approaches toward healing from past trauma and disappointments, and to assist you in navigating pathways from just surviving life, to thriving in life.

My approach to therapy

One of the ways I facilitate the change you seek is through Cognitive Behavior Therapy. This is a therapeutic model that helps you understand how your core beliefs affect your thoughts, and how your thoughts affect the decisions you make, and ultimately your behavior - the things you do.

What you can expect from me

Each therapy session will cause your awareness of “self” to increase. You will also identify life practices that serve your values and goals and learn to eliminate life practices that do not serve you. As a result, you will become more empowered to make life choices that do not compromise your values and goals, but instead will honor them.
