About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, in the state of Florida, with 39 years of experience with providing Therapy for many different clients, with a wide range of concerns including Depression, Anxiety, Phobias, Anger Management issues, Substance Use concerns, Relationship concerns, Trauma, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, working with women who have experienced emotional, physical or sexual abuse, adolescents with various concerns. I have worked with and helped Geriatric clients, as well, with many of their concerns; including Depression, Anxiety, Caregiver concerns.
I have provided Individual therapy, group therapy and family therapy, for many age groups. I encourage a client to express their concerns and interact, but I provide psycho-social education, also, to provide a client with information relevant to their circumstances. i.e. depression, anxiety, substance use, relationship issues and grief and loss, to name a few areas. I believe in treating others with dignity, respect and compassion. I use an appropriate approach, tailored to the individual client, always starting where the client is, such as cognitive behavioral, reality therapy, choices, psycho-education and supportive measures. The client and myself will create desired treatment plan goals and work on the client's most pressing needs, as identified by the client. I look forward to working with you, being supportive and empowering you in any way that I can help.
