I am a clinical social worker and have had experience in a variety of settings which has improved my knowledge in different diagnosis and techniques to treatment. I have primarily worked with individuals, families, and couples. I have spent a considerable amount of time working in a private practice setting focusing on loss and management of emotions including but not limited to depression and anxiety.

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

During the first session, I will obtain background information. It helps to understand family dynamics, environmental factors, commitment to therapy prior, and presenting problem. I understand it can be challenging to dive into the past and answer specific questions, I help navigate through those emotions. I will create a safe space to gather sensitive information and create a treatment plan moving forward (days and times we will meet that will work best for both parties involved.). I will work on goals the individual is hoping to achieve in therapy and how we can move towards that in sessions.

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

My greatest strength is acceptance of the person, creating a safe space for them, and encouraging them to grow as an individual. I work hard on active listening and challenging negative beliefs, thoughts, and emotions only when client is ready.
