I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with extensive experience (20+ Years) providing mental health services to adults, geriatrics, and pediatrics of the disadvantaged, middle class and privileged backgrounds in a variety of acute and long-term care settings including community mental health and medical clinics, intensive outpatient programs, in-home, group home, school, psychiatric/medical hospital, and independent private practice environments.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I help clients determine desired outcomes and develop realistic plans to work toward and reach those outcomes.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I provide a safe space to explore and share thoughts, feelings, and concerns in a nonjudgmental environment of support.

Eclectic
My eclectic approach to providing therapy draws upon multiple theoretical orientations and techniques (mainly psychodynamic, attachment theory, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindful-based stress reduction, solution-focused, problem-solving, systems, and strength-based orientations). This multifaceted flexible approach allows me to use the most effective methods available to address each individual client's needs.
