I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker certified by the Academy of Certified Social Workers. I have over 20 years of experience working with a diverse population on various issues, including anxiety, depression, grief/loss, marital or family conflict, and stress. I have obtained training in anxiety disorders, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, depression, ADHD, clinical supervision, sexual abuse, immigration evaluations, the Gottman Method, and cultural competency.
I provide individualized treatment to clients. I use the following approaches in my practice: Strength-Based, CBT. Trauma Focused-CBT, Gottman Method, and Structural Family Therapy.
Services are provided in a safe, nonjudgmental, and culturally sensitive environment. The intake process involves obtaining background history, exploring treatment goals and objectives, and developing a treatment plan that I review with clients during the first couple of sessions. Throughout treatment, clients learn practical strategies to cope with their challenges. When needed, homework is assigned to encourage clients to implement strategies in real-life situations.
