LCSW, 32 years of experience
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 32 years of experience in the mental health field working with a variety of clients and ages. I attended the University of Louisville and obtained a Master's in Social Work. I have worked in a variety of clinical settings including private practice, director of mental health centers, and director of psychiatric hospitals. I utilize a variety of techniques including EMDR, somatic, CBT, and faith based upon request.
During the initial session, we discuss what has led you to seek services, gather history, and identify some goals that you would like to accomplish.
Having worked with clients of all ages over the past 32 years, I have gained a lot of experience, and the ability to identify along with you, the root causes of your challenges, and help in the healing process.
We all walk through difficult times in our lives and need the support of someone to help us through. I walk alongside others and help them on their journey to heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, abuse, grief. I have a heart for helping those who have experienced unimaginable trauma locally and abroad. Together we will work to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. This includes identifying and processing via a mind, body and spiritual approach.
In addition to talking about feelings, it is helpful to identify where you feel them in your body in order to promote a deeper processing of the feelings, and healing.
Identifying early life experiences that may be contributing to current symptoms.
