LCSW, 22 years of experience
Welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 22yrs of experience working with individuals from all walks of life, and I love working with individuals in helping them with life challenges and barriers to their happiness and living their best life. My strengths include being a good listener, starting where the client is in their life, helping them to change the things that no longer serve them well.
The first session will be getting to know each other and their expectations for therapy. I look forward to it.
My approach to therapy is very eclectic and I have worked in many different settings to include; Addiction setting, Psychiatric Acute Care, Community Mental Health with adults and children, as well as older adults. I feel that a good strength that I have is that I am a good listener, and that I want my client's to feel empowered, and that they were heard during our sessions.
My approach to therapy and the clients that I feel best at serving are those individuals that want to make changes in their life and will take the steps for change. Meeting with me is the first step.
CBT is very important in changing the way that we think, and restructuring negative thoughts to improve our emotions, and our reality. Ultimately changing our World.
