LCSW, 26 years of experience
Our discussion will be interactive. You will be on a journey of possibilities and opportunities. I have dedicated my professional life to serving others. I am a Doctor of Social Work and a scholar-practitioner with three social work degrees. I am an LCSW for Florida State and an LMSW for New York State. I provide mental health services to adults and adolescent children. My greatest strength is helping people move beyond being stuck, feeling vulnerable and invisible to society.
People should know that I have lived experiences. I empathize with people who are stuck in trauma. I work very well with people who feel lonely and isolated. Also, people with severe mental health disorders do very well when I follow them from hospitalization to home.
My greatest strengths are empathy and communication. Life does not happen without challenges, but through talk therapy and resilience; strength and grit emerge.
Clinically, I am a humanistic therapist. I apply an eclectic approach to support clients, often drawing heavily on Person-Centered Theory. I am a Trauma-Informed clinician promoting safety, empowerment, and a healing culture. I am proud to work with the LGBTQ+ population and veterans. Through empowerment, clients find a connection with me.
Clients benefit from using CBT with such skills as reframing to quiet intrusive thoughts and silence traumatic memories.
Clients benefit from a Trauma-informed therapist where the patient has the freedom to open up with a safe non-judgmental space.
Clients benefit from an array of clinical methodologies to aid in living their best lives.
