With a focus on strengths and resources, I am passionate about helping people lead happy and productive lives. As a skilled clinical social worker, I specialize in supporting individuals who face depression, anxiety, mood/behavioral issues, and trauma. My expertise lies in working with survivors of sexual trauma and abuse, offering compassionate guidance and utilizing evidence-based therapies such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help process and overcome past barriers. Additionally, as an Addictions Specialist, I am committed to assisting those navigating substance use and recovery. Through education and empowering individuals to recognize their risk factors and compulsive behaviors, I strive to facilitate lasting behavior change. My therapeutic approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Reality-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, EMDR, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
