I'm an LCSW with a Doctorate in Social Work. My practice background includes working with children and families in a variety of settings (child welfare, school, hospital). I started a small private clinical practice several years ago where I serve primarily adults.
Much of my work is rooted in attachment theory, with an awareness that we are all simply on a journey of learning ourselves better. I strive to help clients heal through walking alongside them in their struggles.
I am a client centered practitioner. I work with clients to help them identify and express their own needs and let their needs guide their treatment goals. If desired, I can offer a clinical perspective to help clients navigate their personal challenges. I try to help clients discovery their own personal set of values and creating a life that is grounded in their personal values.
I try to create an environment where my clients feel seen, heard and valued. I like for clients to leave sessions feeling relieved and empowered to face their struggles. I like to partner with my clients in creating their treatment goals, to ensure the focus on our time together is meeting the client's personal needs.
