I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with additional advanced certifications. I have expertise and many years of experience helping clients navigate serious illness, grief and loss, and supporting caregivers. I also specialize in treating individuals who are struggling with symptoms of depression or anxiety. I look forward to meeting with you and identifying how I can support your next stage of growth.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session I’ll tell you about myself and my style of therapy. You’ll have the opportunity to talk through the things you’re struggling with and we will decide together if this partnership is a good fit.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am a practical person and I try to apply my knowledge to your situation in a down-to-earth, practical kind of way. Therapy does not have to be about digging up the past or living in a theoretical world. My strength is in helping you find a clear, functional path forward.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Reaching out for help and support is no small thing. Congratulations on taking that first huge step! Know that I will work with you to create a safe space to explore the ups and downs of your journey. Let’s schedule a time to talk about what’s going on and see if we are a good fit.

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is an action-oriented approach to psychotherapy that stems from traditional behavior therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Clients learn to stop avoiding, denying, and struggling with their inner emotions and, instead, accept that these deeper feelings are appropriate responses to certain situations that should not prevent them from moving forward in their lives. With this understanding, clients begin to accept their hardships and commit to making necessary changes in their behavior, regardless of what is going on in their lives and how they feel about it.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a form of psychological treatment that has been demonstrated to be effective for a range of problems including depression, anxiety disorders, alcohol and drug use problems, marital problems, eating disorders, and severe mental illness. Numerous research studies suggest that CBT leads to significant improvement in functioning and quality of life. In many studies, CBT has been demonstrated to be as effective as, or more effective than, other forms of psychological therapy or psychiatric medications.
