Trauma

Great to meet you!

As a licensed clinical social worker, I have been providing therapeutic services since 1997 to individuals and families in a variety of settings, including outpatient, school-based, in-home, and military settings. I've enjoyed working and living in Florida, Hawaii, and Qatar, and teaching at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and the University of South Florida, St. Petersburg.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Adversity can present an opportunity for amazing personal growth and understanding. I am passionate about taking a collaborative adventure with my clients as they gain new insights and obtain recovery life skills. I utilize a variety of treatment modalities, including trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, adoption competency, strengths-based counseling, and a family systems approach, among others.

What you can expect from our first session

I will work with you to develop coping skills, tools and strategies for managing stress and anxiety, as well as a treatment plan specifically tailored for your needs. My approach is warm and interactive, and I strive to provide a safe, supportive environment where we can work toward reaching your goals.
