About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of rich experience dedicated to serving children and their families, parents, teenagers, couples and adults. I’ve had the privilege to serve and treat hundreds of families from different backgrounds, ages and stages of life. I am committed to the highest quality standards of care to ensure that each and every individual, along with their significant, loved ones, receive treatment that is purposeful, meaningful, lasting, efficient, effective and evidenced-based in order to promote long-term, quality outcomes. I am a seasoned professional with rich experience, advanced clinical skills, and certifications in many of the most effective, evidence-based practices. I am committed to providing the highest quality service to those I serve. I am passionate about my work and have sought to continuously expand my clinical repertoire through advanced training and nationally recognized rosters and certifications such as Trauma Focused, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Training for Adoption Competency (TAC), Triple P, Parent-Child Interactive Therapy, DIR-Floortime (TM), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Relationship Therapy, Reality Therapy and many others-all tailored to your specific social-emotional needs in order to promote holistic wellness.
It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I will provide you the highest quality clinical care, treatment, guidance and support in order for you to lead your very best life and to nurture your inner strength and capabilities for your unique life journey.
