About
I truly believe that self awareness and acceptance are the building blocks for creating meaningful and lasting change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience working as a therapist, behavioral coach, and medical social worker, I have witnessed people overcome great obstacles and reach their goals.
I have worked with clients of all ages with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, stress, OCD, ADD/ADHD, grief and loss, pain and living with chronic health issues. I have completed multiple specialized training programs required for Post-Graduate Certifications as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional; Certified Family Trauma Professional; Certified Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Professional; with a Certificate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I): Evidence-based Insomnia Interventions for Trauma, Anxiety, Depression, and Chronic Pain; and a Certificate in John and Julie Gottman's "10 Core Principles for Effective Couples Therapy."
My counseling style is supportive, interactive and motivational. I offer a non-judgmental approach that combines cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, dialectical behavioral, acceptance based, and solution focused strategies. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs, while encouraging the areas to observe and the skills to practice.
It takes courage to take the first steps towards self improvement, and I applaud you for being on this journey. I am here to support and empower you. One of my mindful mantras I like to share: "I accept, therefore I am. I let go, therefore I grow. I believe, therefore I can."
I look forward to working with you and being your guide to improved wellness and mental strength.
