Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families. I've gained extensive knowledge throughout my career that enables me to work effectively with various issues including but not limited to grief, depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, abuse, anger, relationship issues, infidelity, mood disorders, compulsive disorders, ADHD, addictions of all kinds, incarceration, sexual behavior problems, and much more. Working in psychiatric hospitals and the justice system has prepared me to assist clients with a wide variety of issues using evidence based therapies to help my clients make sustainable progress quickly. I utilize an eclectic approach that helps me build a treatment plan that is personalized for each individual client. I provide non-judgmental support for my clients to express themselves freely. I offer my clients guidance, suggestions, constructive criticism and resources to aid in the progress they desire to obtain their personalized goals.

My approach to therapy

I use therapeutic modalities that fit the issues my clients are facing. Those modalities include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Schema Therapy, Gottman Method, Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), Attachment Theory, and more. I continuously educate myself on new and existing evidenced based modalities in order to better serve my client's needs.

What you can expect from me

Clients of mine can expect to leave sessions feeling heard, understood, empowered and supported!
