As a licensed clinical social worker with seven years of dedicated experience in the field, I bring a wealth of expertise to my practice. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of serving a diverse spectrum of clients, spanning from school-aged youth to individuals in elder care settings. My therapeutic approach is characterized by a delicate balance of directness and empathy, fostering a safe and supportive space for exploration and growth. I am deeply committed to empowering my clients on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. To this end, I place great emphasis on equipping individuals with practical resources and tools that extend beyond our sessions. By providing tailored strategies that can be implemented between appointments and long after therapy goals have been achieved, I aim to facilitate sustained progress and well-being. Thank you for considering me as a partner in your journey towards personal growth and fulfillment.

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

During our first session, our primary focus will be on establishing a foundation of mutual understanding and trust. Together, we will explore and discuss your personal history and aspirations for therapy. This initial encounter will allow you the opportunity to communicate your preferences and expectations, empowering you to advocate for the therapeutic approach that resonates most deeply with your needs and aspirations.

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

One of my foremost strengths as a provider is my capacity to leverage your individual interests and preferences, thereby tailoring established interventions to resonate with you on a deeply engaging level. This personalized approach ensures that our therapeutic journey is not only effective but also inherently captivating. Furthermore, I pride myself on being a resourceful provider, committed to equipping each client with valuable insights and tools that extend beyond our sessions. By furnishing you with actionable information and resources, I aim to empower you to navigate challenges both within and outside the therapeutic setting, facilitating sustained progress and personal growth.
