I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in TN MS, and MO. My office is based in MS. I received my Master's in Social Work from the University of Missouri, at Columbia in 2013. I have been practicing in the field for 12 years and I have over 25 years of combined and progressive work experience in medical and behavioral healthcare settings. I am a Certified Mindfulness Trainer, and I am also a Training and Education Specialist.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I like to start with introductions and gain clarity and insight as to the client's reasoning, goals, and objectives for therapy. This is very critical and foundational in that of creating an effective personalized plan of treatment and care.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have a strong scriptural base and Christian background, and I am naturally holistic and solution-focused, in approach. I also have a natural bend in partnering and assisting clients with identifying and addressing the seemingly "little things," that many times appear insignificant and go unnoticed and undetected yet often have a great impact.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with individuals who are proactive, solution-oriented, and open to collaboration and new ideas.
