Do you want to feel happy and satisfied with your life? Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Do you believe you deserve more? I help individuals manage anxiety, depression and anger. You feel happier and more satisfied with life. Together, we can identify what's not working and get things back to balance. We can work together for a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit.
I am spiritual as well and am open to discussing spiritual aspects if someone wants to.
I'm here to help. Reaching out or therapy can feel scary, but you're making the right choice. People deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In the sessions, I'll meet you with compassion, a listening ear and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the challenges and live the life you deserve. I graduated from Florida State University with my undergraduate degree in Social Work. I graduated from Case Western Reserve University Mandel School of Applied Social Science. I ve been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 25 years.
First session
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions with your input.
Strengths
I am easy to communicate with. I will focus on your strengths and offer positive warm regard. We will work together to help you achieve your goals.
Ideal clients
I have a great deal of experience in behavioral health with adolescents-over 20 years. Ten years with substance abuse adults. Ten of my twenty years with adolescents was with adolescent sex offenders. I love working with young professionals who are in the first few years of their careers. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their careers.
