LCSW, 25 years of experience
I have worked in various settings including schools , medical and psychiatric centers for over 20 years. During this time I have seen the world change. I have felt the impact of technology and experienced the pandemic. All of this has helped me grow as an individual and clinician making me more in tune to the needs of those seeking help.
during our first session I will listen and try to understand your needs and goals. Together we will establish a short term plan to enable you to move toward your goals. Do you want to talk about the next step ? Reach out to me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
Having worked in a school setting during the pandemic, I have learned how to engage children effectively using virtual sessions. The honesty and spontaneity of my students has taught me how to adjust my plan, and respond to my client's needs.
I bring over 20 years of experience providing care in diverse settings including psychiatric, medical and school environments. I feel honored to help children navigate school settings as these environments have become more stressful and complex. Children with learning and social issues including those who present with attention concerns can succeed !
I'm passionate about helping children, families and individuals navigate emotional challenges, life transitions and the impact of medical conditions. I take time to truly understand each unique individual's needs. Utilizing a CBT frame work has enabled me to empower the client to identify goals and understand growth towards those and blocks to achieving the goal.
I have supported individuals experiencing grief utilizing compassion focused therapy . This has allowed me to support individuals and families, assisting them by providing a safe space to allow them to grieve. I have been able to help clients find that place to start re-building a life that can become meaningful and joyful again.
