I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia, but also licensed in Indiana. I received my Masters from Western Kentucky University and have been practicing since 2011. I have worked with adults, adolescents and children throughout my career with the main goal of helping them to make improvements in their lives one step at a time.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we’ll start with introductions and getting to know one another, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Throughout my years in this field I have strived to meet my clients where they are. In doing this, trust is built, achievable and agreeable goals are established, and positive progress has been made.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
We all come from different walks of life and aren’t immune to the stressors of life, but taking the first step in acknowledging that something is “off” and seeking assistance is the first step to a life changing experience. Understanding this about one's situation helps me as a professional to equip you with the tools necessary to make positive changes.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I’ve been using CBT in my practice for well over 10 years. It’s helped dozens of clients challenge reoccurring thoughts and manage their anxiety. We’ll use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We’ll then use that knowledge to change your thinking patterns, which will help you lead a less anxious and stressed life.
Daialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have been using DBT within the last 5 years as a way to work toward exploring other perspectives and truths in various scenarios in your life that are causing you distress. This will be done in a way that doesn’t dismiss your position, but rather helps you consider and introduce an alternative view that may also be valid.
