I have over 30 years of experience in the mental health field. The clients I support develop coping strategies to decrease anxiety, improve organization, decrease depression and take greater ownership of their life and their goals. I provide a safe environment for my clients to assess what they want to accomplish and explore what ways would be most effective for them.

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

Clients need to be good consumers as not all social workers are created equal. In the first session, my hope is that the client is comfortable to begin to develop a relationship and feel safe.

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

I am genuine, straight-forward and caring in my approach. I create an atmosphere where the client can feel safe to honestly assess their situation and the approach they are taking to see if it is the best for them.
