I am a licensed clinical social worker LCSW, licensed in the state of Florida with over 9 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I graduated from the University of South Florida with a B.A. in Psychology, cum laude, and a minor in Public Administration. I then obtained my MSW in Clinical Social Work from Columbia University where I graduated summa cum laude. I have worked with clients ranging from children as young as age 5, to late adulthood that suffer from a wide array of concerns: Anxiety, ADHD, Addiction, Bipolar I and II, comorbid disorders, depression, couples counseling, LGBTQ+ issues, OCD, PTSD, and trauma.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with you telling me the specific challenges you are currently facing. I will then ask you questions based on that information. It will be an organic process. I will ask you questions about your history and your childhood, so I can get a full picture of how to tailor your treatment. For example, do you have childhood trauma? Is that playing a role in what you are experiencing today? Is it affecting your current relationships? Etc.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with people from all walks of life, my client's often tell me that I'm "easy to talk to," and "I make them feel safe." I am straightforward and I don't beat around the bush. This is a safe space with no judgement, so nothing but authenticity here. Come as you are!
