Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Over the last 16 years, I have worked with people of all ages and diverse backgrounds, making my clinical approach one that is individually tailored, culturally affirming, and compassionate. I work collaboratively with my clients, helping empower them to make changes through open communication, and education. I am passionate about helping my clients engage in identity exploration, exploring sense of self, sense of purpose, navigating life transitions, and improving relationships. While providing honest feedback, together we will explore choices, attain coping strategies, highlight progress, and recognize strengths. I have extensive experience in trauma informed care. My primary treatment modalities include cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. 12 step principles, and alternative recovery methods are included in treatment as needed. I place great value on the initial phone consultation, which is free and without obligation, as a chance to get to know one another and help to determine the best approach for you. I invite you to contact me with any questions you have about therapy or the process of beginning our work together.
