Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have five years experience with adults with co-occurring mental illness and substance abuse issues, anxiety, and depression as well as children with ADHD and Autism. I was a Special Education Counselor for two years and previously taught in a classroom for three years. I believe this gives me insight into the education system and struggles children face in the classroom as well as accommodations that can help make their school day more successful. I have experience with a range of assessments for diagnosing ADHD and social skills for children.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The first session is a “get to know you” session where we will discuss what you are having trouble with, what your expectations are, and a social history.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to specifically identify behavioral patterns and help you recognize those patterns and work on changing the thoughts behind them. Mindfulness- This is like a “moment to catch your breath and reflect”, I find it especially useful to children and parents who may each need a moment to calm down and collect their thoughts before behaviors and words get out of hand.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I feel my biggest strengths are: my ability to connect with my clients and understand where they are coming from, and my understanding of the special education system.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Children- 7 and up Adults with health issues (cancer, MS, Lupus, heart issues) Seniors Perinatal
