About
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania with over 40 years of direct clinical practice and 29 years as a faculty member and administrator in an academic setting. I have provided psychotherapy to varied ethnic groups and diverse populations with different challenges. I have experience in the addictions field, providing both inpatient and outpatient treatment. I have interest and experience in working with males across the lifecycle, assisting males with life transitions and developing strategies for managing anger and communicating more effectively. I have provided training on working with males and I am on the Board of a Men’s Center. I have developed skills in working with couples and blended families. A significant part of my practice is working with men and women who experience symptoms of depression and anxiety along with work related stress and difficulties.
I utilize a Brief Treatment Model incorporating Cognitive and Psychodynamic theory. My approach is trauma informed, and strengths based with a solution focused and motivational interviewing style. I focus on developing more effective decision-making skills and coping strategies for addressing life challenges.
I take a holistic approach to client’s issues with a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental style. I am supportive and will challenge you as you establish goals and make changes. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of your journey.
