Introduction

I have over 20 years of experience providing clinical social work services in various settings including schools, community mental health, and telehealth. My primary areas of focus are anxiety, depression, and trauma. I use mostly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a Trauma Informed approach. I am very strengths based. As such, I will help you identify aspects of your way of doing things that are already working so that we can build on that foundation. I also incorporate mindfulness skills and give you tools to use on your own between sessions. I try to remain solution focused so that you gain the skills you need to manage more effectively on your own. I value diversity, and strive to provide a safe, accepting space for everyone.
