Hello, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 22 years of experience in psychotherapy. I hold a Master's degree in Social Work and dual MBAs in Finance and Cybersecurity. Based in California, my practice has been enriched by my extensive travels and a deep appreciation for nature and hiking. I have had the privilege of working with a diverse population, providing tailored psychotherapy to meet a wide range of mental health needs. My approach is informed by a blend of professional expertise and personal insights, aiming to offer compassionate, effective care to each of my clients.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In the first session with me, clients can expect a welcoming and safe environment where we begin to build our therapeutic relationship. The session typically starts with an introduction and a discussion about confidentiality and therapy procedures. I'll encourage clients to share their background, reasons for seeking therapy, and their goals. This is a time for mutual understanding, where I listen attentively to understand their unique experiences and challenges. Clients can also expect to learn about my therapeutic approach and how it might align with their needs. The primary aim of this initial session is to establish comfort and trust, setting the foundation for our journey together in addressing their mental health concerns.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my extensive experience and diverse educational background, which allow me to offer a comprehensive and multifaceted approach to therapy. My ability to integrate knowledge from the fields of finance and cybersecurity into psychotherapy is unique and beneficial for clients dealing with modern, complex issues. Additionally, my cultural sensitivity, honed through extensive travel, enables me to connect with and understand clients from diverse backgrounds effectively. My personal interests in nature and hiking also allow me to incorporate unique, holistic perspectives into therapy. Above all, my commitment to creating a safe, empathetic, and supportive environment stands out, helping clients feel understood and valued throughout their therapeutic journey.
