I have my LCSW, based in CT and have a great deal of experience working with adolescents with trauma, depression, anxiety, etc. My most recent endeavors have been learning how to heal without medication. Many don't know that 90% of our brain's serotonin is made in our gut. Let me teach you how to feel better by eating the right foods and incorporating the right coping skills . I also have a great deal of experience working with adolescents and can effectively provide emotional and behavioral support for youth with wide array of needs utilizing a holistic and strengths-based clinical approach. I specialize in the assessment and treatment of: PTSD , Substance abuse , Conduct Disorder, ADHD , Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Anxiety, Depression , Postpartum & can help with health related issues.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I will gather information and determine if we're a good fit to work with one another. Then we can create a plan for how I can best help.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I think my greatest strength is how natural I am at building a rapport. I think you'll find I'm easy to talk to and you'll feel comfortable sharing things you don't ordinarily share. This honesty, can help us figure out best next steps for your life.
