I motivate and empower others to find an improvement in their life. Life is hard. Life is chaotic. Clients will know they are not alone in life. I work with women who are wanting to improve their life satisfaction whether that be in schooling, parenting, relationships, careers, or even personal growth. I believe that life is meant to be enjoyed. As long as a client is willing to be genuine and honest, I am a guide to meet their goals. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. I graduated with my Masters in Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago from the Jane Addams School of Social Work. I practiced as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts for 13 years. I have worked in homes, community, schools, hospitals, and psychiatric facilities. I have literally worked with all ages from 0 to 96.

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

We will review your knowledge and expectations of therapy. We will create the goals YOU want to reach. As a client, you will be made to feel safe and accepted as your authentic self. You will know that I will be dedicated to guide you in reaching your goals.

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

As a provider, I have been able to build strong relationships with my clients as I accept others as who they are. I genuinely believe every person has strengths and ability for change. I provide psycho-education (knowledge about your diagnosis), as well as, utilize and evidenced-based treatment. This allows clients to make informed choices regarding their treatment.

My treatment methods

Strength-Based

As human beings, we all have strengths and weaknesses. When our strengths are identified, they can be utilized to address our weaknesses. When suffering, it is often difficult to identify our strengths. I am skilled in assisting clients to discover and utilize their strengths.

Motivational interviewing allows clients to determine the goals they want to reach. Together we will create an action plan that will empower you to reach your goals. I have guided clients through occupational and relationship issues and to make steps to address these issues.
