Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Master level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) based in Florida. I received by Masters from the University of Central Florida. I have been practicing for over 20 years to help adolescents and adults deal effectively with problems and become the best versions of themselves. I look forward to helping you on your journey towards better mental health and functioning.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
We will start our first session with a brief introduction and obtain basic background information. Then we will discuss the specific challenges you want to work on. This will help me tailor a treatment plan for us to work on to improve your situation.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I practice what I preach and don't tell clients to do things I'm not willing to do myself. I have successfully dealt with issues like anxiety, depression, abuse and addiction myself. I use my knowledge and experience to help my clients.
