Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania. I received my Masters from the University of Louisville and have been practicing for 5 years. I have 9 years experience working with patients in the medical setting as well. I find it inspiring to work with adults who are struggling with anxiety and depression. We work through the barriers as a team in order to become best versions of themselves.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing and what you want to accomplish. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with adults 25 year old and beyond for the past 5 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I love working with adults and older adults who are in need of a non judgmental professional to help identify what may be preventing one from maximizing potential and creating a more fulfilling life. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the all tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about starting therapy.
Typically I like to use the nuts and bolts of CBT including identifying thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, dissecting dysfunctional thoughts, and reframing to make the dysfunctional thoughts more accurate.
