About
My clinical experience is in inpatient psychiatric units, residential and group homes, day treatment, outpatient, therapeutic foster care, in-home services, adoption, substance abuse treatment centers, corrections, and youth detention centers. It spans over 15 years, including case management, professional development training, consultation, supervision, and programming. My client interest embraces treating persons who are bisexual, gay, lesbian, heterosexual, transsexual, HIV/AIDS, and cancer clients of various ethnicity and religious beliefs. I specialize in interpersonal relationships, family discord, early childhood development, positive parenting, depression, anxiety, women’s issues, and human sexuality. Get the support you want now. Open, caring, and nonjudgmental, I will work with you in an interactive and supportive process where you can grieve, grow, laugh, and celebrate as you move towards healing and change. You are going to be OK; I am here to help.
