About

At times, we need someone to walk the journey with us to help us find our inner strength and courage so that we can make positive changes. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with a variety of clients in numerous settings. I create a safe, warm, and comforting environment for my clients, no matter their age. I enjoy helping individuals and families navigate developmental milestones and life transitions.

My goal is to meet each client where they are in their life journey and to utilize my education, knowledge and experience to assist them with reaching their desired goals. I strive to connect clients with appropriate coping skills and tools to defeat negative thoughts, take control of their emotions, and improve their interpersonal relationships with others.

I am very person-centered in my therapeutic approach with an aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space to be open, and vulnerable. I demonstrate a profound ability to be able to quickly gain rapport while working with my clients.
