About
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the state of Ohio and Nebraska. I am an Army Veteran and have been practicing social work since 2014. I have been providing mental health interventions since 2017. I have practiced in many diverse settings ranging from in-home family brief intervention, intensive out-patient substance use, outpatient group therapy and inpatient psychiatric settings. My focus is primarily with women, post-partum and family systems. I have worked with clients on a spectrum of concerns including anxiety, relationship issues, communication issues, depression, family issues, anger, parenting issues, and adjustment issues.
My therapy style is both supportive and confrontational. I thoroughly believe in establishing a good rapport with each client and individualizing interventions and communication style. I believe that every person has a story to tell and that each persons' reality should be validated. I work diligently with clients to challenge their thinking and increase mental growth. I believe each client should be able to speak openly without judgment and I respect each of my clients and their boundaries. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and motivational interviewing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe in guiding the client in healing on their own terms.
It can be a challenge to find the right therapist for your needs. It takes courage to come forward and begin to speak out loud about your deepest thoughts and feelings. I look forward to getting to know the real you and working to identify an approach that will work to best help you find your inner calm.
