About
Most people face trying times at different points in their lives and may benefit from support to overcome their challenges. Seeking help can be intimidating and it takes courage to begin therapy. As a social worker, I am trained to help people to better understand themselves and what may be contributing to their struggles, and to offer practical solutions that can help improve their situation. Although I genuinely enjoy the people that I meet, I believe that therapy should be temporary professional assistance so that people can learn how to manage their challenges independently. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and related mood disorders, as well as the behavioral issues that stem from them. I am trained in various evidence-based methodologies, with extensive training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). As a former school social worker, I also possess intimate knowledge about Special Education supports and services, Individualized Education Plans, and Section 504 accommodations. I am confident that I can help most people with most things; however, I can also serve as a reliable referral source when I am not best suited to meet a specific client’s needs.
