About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Louisiana with over 6 years of experience working as a social worker. My experience includes working with adults 18+ as well as families with members of all ages. I have worked in many settings including Department of Corrections, hospitals, home based, outpatient mental health clinic, and substance abuse treatment clinic. I have background in providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Grief Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, addiction counseling, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness techniques.

I value the dignity and worth of my clients as well as their right to self determination. I view the client as the expert, as they are giving the details of his/her own life. I do not see it as my place to pretend like I know what he/she is going through but instead provide a safe, comfortable space where we can work together as a team to work through problems or emotional needs that may be interrupting his/her daily life. The therapeutic relationship is extremely important in therapy. I will do my best to ensure that my clients feel they are a priority and can be honest and open while working with me. I pledge do the same.
