Great to meet you!

I have 30 years of experience in the field of Social Work, working with adults, the elderly & those struggling with addiction. The last 15 years I worked for the DOD, I am licensed in Texas & Washington State. I hold a Master Addiction Counselor certificate through the National Association of Forensic Counselors. Motivational Interviewing & Strengths Model are two of my favorites. I am also Certified in Smart Recovery & the 12 Step Process.

My approach to therapy

The most important goal in my therapy is to develop our relationship. Motivational Interviewing & Strengths Model are two of my favorites. I am also Certified in Smart Recovery & the 12 Step Process. In your first session you will share the reason for coming to therapy & what you hope to gain at completion.

What you can expect from me

I work with clients who are struggling with depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction & other life stressors. The reason you come to see me & what you want to accomplish is what guides our formulation of your Treatment Plan. My patients consistently report a reduction in symptoms within the first 1-2 sessions (approximately 8 to 10 sessions) & are consistent with keeping their appointments.
