About

Hello! If you are exploring Find A Therapist, it is likely that you are seeking a helping hand to improve your life. Sometimes life brings challenges which can become overwhelming and stressful. When you come to therapy, you get to drop the pretensions. You get to be vulnerable and explore the fears and painful feelings that you worry you cannot reveal to the people you love. Therapy improves mental wellness and helps to address maladaptive behaviors and coping mechanisms with safe and more effective coping strategies in order to travel the road to recovery. As you get more comfortable talking to me about your real wants and needs, you build the skills to manage your emotions and problems in a constructive way leading to inner peace. I would like to provide you with some information about myself in order to help you decide if my experience and style is the right match for you.

I have been a clinical social worker for 25 years and have experience working with people from all different backgrounds who are struggling with a wide variety of challenges. Much of my experience has been working with people who are struggling with depression, stress and anxiety, trauma, grief and loss issues, anger, addiction and compulsion, marital problems, couples and family problems, codependency, and culture shock, acculturation. The feedback I receive from clients is that they find me to be caring and nonjudgmental, and they appreciate that I am honest, having the ability to understand, good listening skills, easy to talk to, reliable, and trustworthy. You can expect me to walk with you through whatever difficulties you are facing and help you learn more about yourself and the way you interact with others.

I find it helpful to participate in video sessions so that we can get to know each other better. But I am also available to you via phone and text if that is more comfortable for you. My availability is from 8 AM to 5 PM. If you require different time we can discuss that. I check messages frequently and I try to respond as soon as possible.

If you like my profile and agree to a membership please look at my schedule, select an open slot, and book an appointment per your preference.
