People who come to therapy want a safe place to openly discuss problems or recurring themes in their lives that they don’t feel they can talk about fully and freely with other people. But they don’t just want to talk. They want active help thinking through where things have gone wrong, where their blind-spots might be, and what they can do to get to a better place – a place that not only feels livable, but actively good. They want to have good relationships, self-respect and self-esteem, a sense of optimism and bravery, and a feeling that they can take on whatever the world throws at them. I am licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years experience working with adults and couples in a variety of settings. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, anger management, trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss, work-life balance, acculturation, career counseling, parenting, divorce, and other life transitions. My practice is collaborative helping clients to better understand how past and current experiences and patterns of behavior impact their wellbeing which once identified and processed allows us to make a plan for positive changes for improved management of symptoms, emotions, relationships, and stressors and increased confidence and feelings of empowerment.
