(she/her)
Welcome! Thanks for stopping by my page. I'd like to share a little bit about myself and my clinical experience. If you think we might be a good team, let's chat! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience providing an exceptional, solution-focused therapeutic experience to clients from all walks of life and across the age span. I have worked in a variety of settings including private practice, hospice and community mental health. I have successfully worked with clients and families with a variety of mental health issues, as well as those on the Autism spectrum and their families. I use a holistic approach to providing therapy to my clients and helping them to achieve their goals. I utilize a wide array of therapeutic techniques and am a Level II Certified EAGALA (Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association) practitioner. I greatly enjoy my work with active military, veterans and their families and consider it an honor to do so. I am currently on most major insurance panels, including Medicare. Feel free to send me a message or schedule a session. I'm excited to begin our journey together!
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, we will spend some time talking about your personal goals and how I can help you to reach them. I use this time to get to know you and to understand you--and for you to get to know a bit about me. I tend to have a casual style and am very open and adaptive to each client's unique needs.
The treatment methods and tools I utilize
I utilize a wide array of methods and tools to help clients reach their highest potential. For example, narrative therapy, CBT, Trauma Focused CBT, art therapy and solution focused psychotherapy are a few of the modalities I employ.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
One of my biggest strengths is the empathy that I project to my clients. It is incredibly healing for each of us to have a safe space where we can express our thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. I especially enjoy working with those who are suffering from grief issues, trauma and autism spectrum disorder issues. I have extensive personal experience working with those on the spectrum and have a tremendous amount of expertise in that area.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Clients with trauma, depression, grief issues. I also have a lot of experience working with clients with ASD and their families.
