New to Grow
Hello! I am a master’s level licensed independent social worker. I obtained my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in social work from The Ohio State University. I’ve been in the field nearly 5 years. I believe in supporting and encouraging others to create their ‘life worth living’ and achieve their therapy goals. I believe in access to quality mental health care for all individuals.
In your first session, I will focus on gathering a history of symptoms. Typically I will ask numerous questions to get to know you and why you are seeking services at this time.
I utilize CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy), motivational interviewing and solution focused therapy to assist clients in achieving their goals and healing.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy to assist clients in identifying the interactions between thoughts, beliefs and behaviors. I assist client in restructuring and challenging cognitive distortions.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I utilize dialectical behavioral therapy to assist clients in managing emotion reactions. Clients are taught various coping skills to manage emotions.
