(CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW COUPLES.)I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20+ years of experience in my field and 13 years of experience as an independent practitioner. I provide holistic counseling to individuals, couples, & families. I subscribe to both traditional and new age approaches to help you on your path to transformation and healing. I take pride in offering services that help clients from a strength perspective. I create a safe space in which clients are able to express themselves without judgment. The focus is not diagnoses for the purpose of billing, but to help the client discover a higher sense of self awareness and to formulate a plan that enables them to tap into their true potential, embarking on a journey to live life to the fullest. I love working with individuals with a diverse background. While I address a host of concerns as it pertains to mental health, my specialties include mood disorders, anxiety, relational issues, life transitions, and high conflict parenting. Also, I am LGBT friendly. If you value confidentiality, flexibility, empathy, non-judgment and dependability as part of your mental health wellness, you've found the right therapist. For your convenience, I am currently offering evening and Sunday sessions.

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

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

While I am comfortable with providing mental health services to address most mental health diagnoses, my areas of strength include working with adults (ages 20-80) who are experiencing depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relational issues, life transitional concerns, and identity issues.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

As a therapist experienced with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ve seen firsthand how effective it can be in helping clients identify and modify unhelpful thoughts, behaviors, and emotional responses. CBT is a structured, time-limited form of therapy that is goal-oriented and focuses on the present.
