I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience with a wide range in many areas including substance abuse, mental health, grief counseling and couples counsel. My therapy style is very interactive, compassionate and warm. My therapeutic modalities vary on the client, no one person is the same. Some of the modalities used are Client-Centered, Motivational Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, CBT , Solution Focused Therapy and Psychotherapy. I believe in treating everyone with dignity and respect and will meet you where you are. I strive to create a warm and open environment and have found being interactive allows an individual or couple to be comfortable with talking and engaging. Listening as a therapist is an extremely important skill as well as being able to communicate effectively. Finding the right therapist is not always easy and for some can be discouraging, I commend you for reaching out and truly hope I can be part of your journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session we do a brief introduction, where I say a few things about myself and then ask you to do the same. Then we discuss what brought you to therapy and what you are hoping to achieve and if you are uncertain we discuss the goals together. I strive to create a comfortable and safe environment so that in our first meeting you will feel open to asking questions if you have any.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
Some treatment methods I Like to use are Psychodynamic, interpersonal therapy, CBT, reality therapy and client centered therapy. I find verbal exchange is very important in therapy so being able to talk with each other is the most important tool. Sometimes I use handouts or ask people to journal if writing is a modality that they enjoy. Being able to meet the needs of the client is most important.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have worked extensively with grief, loss and caregiving, as well as substance abuse and depression and anxiety. I also have run support groups in the above mentioned areas as well and have worked with a wide range of age groups as well as with couples. I also have been involved with the LGBTQ+ and have provided couples counseling, handling relationship issues such as open relationships and polyamorous relationships within the couple as well as other areas of concern.
