Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Connecticut. I received my Masters from the University of Connecticut and have been practicing for about 20 years. I work with young adults and adults. I have helped clients address issues around grief, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder and others. I am client-centered and my approach is strength based. In my opinion, building and maintaining rapport are one of the most important aspects of therapy.

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

In our first session together, we will explore reasons for you seeking support, as well as, any other relevant information that will help us develop a path to your goals. We will discuss what is important to you and how we can best fit therapy into your current life/schedule. We will discuss specific goals and potential ways to attain them.

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

Having worked in the field for the past 20 years, I have developed a wide variety of skills and approaches to address and sometimes resolve the most common and complicated aspects of life.
