Hi, I’m an LICSW practicing in Massachusetts for over 30 years. I received an MSW from Boston University SSW as well as a MA in African American Studies. Each degree has informed the other and made me a better clinician. I love my work and truly believe progress is possible for everyone. It looks different for everyone. I encourage clients to own what their success looks like.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
After a brief introduction, in the first session I find clients want someone to their story. I listen skillfully, fully present with the the client. I recognize that it takes a lot to get to that first appointment and I honor that. Before the conclusion of the session I leave time for any questions they may have and formal documentation.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Everyday is a new day. I believe in people’s ability to find their own answers. I’m naturally curious, a good listener and with my years of experience there isn’t too much that I haven’t heard. I’m almost shock proof… almost!
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy women clients in particular but not exclusively, who are tired of being tired and want to change the direction of their lives!
