I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Substance Abuse Specialist with over 25 years of experience providing psychotherapy services. I received my MSW from Barry University in Miami Shores, Fl. I hold national certifications in treating Trauma and Substance Use Disorders. My approach to therapy is highly individualized to meet the need of the individual. I specialize in helping people who are struggling with relationships, depression, anxiety, stress, family of origin issues, co-dependency, substance use and/or trauma. I primarily use Mindfulness, IFS, EMDR and CBT interventions. I believe therapy should be a safe place where a person can explore personal issues and find solutions that will last a lifetime.
My hope is that a person comes away from a session being heard and understood. I do my best to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space, where one can explore issues or events that have led to uncomfortable or distressing thoughts and feelings.
I am trained in several different evidenced based therapies and hold national certifications in treatment of Trauma and Substance Use Disorders. My approach to therapy is based on a person’s individual needs. I have training in numerous interventions including Mindfulness, IFS, EMDR, ART, CBT and Psychodynamic Therapies
My approach to therapy is based on the belief that people already have many of the answers within themselves; just waiting to be discovered. I believe it is important to build a collaborative relationship with clients to help them re-discover their forgotten strengths and resources. What I try to bring to each therapy session are therapy skills, emotional presence, curiosity, psycho-educational information, humor, clarity, and humility.
