LMSW-C, 10 years of experience
New to Grow
Hello all! I am a licensed Social Worker. I received my Masters degree from Michigan State University and have been practicing for over 10 years. I have many diverse life experiences and have worked with clients from birth to end of life care. I enjoy helping adults create a vision of a life worth living and helping them take the steps to achieve their goals. **Note that if you do not see an appointment time that works for you, schedule in any available slot and we can message each other to find something right for you!
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions and you will provide me with information about your history. You can also fill me in on your top priorities. This will assist me in getting to know you, and help us develop goals for future visits.
Having worked with such a wide range clientele over the years, I am confident I can assist with incorporating the tools for change. I will help educate, encourage, and support clients so that growth is attainable.
I love to work with adults of all ages, however, young adults, teachers, and athletes are able to especially benefit from my skill set. Life transitions are hard, but I am here to help! My clients are eager to learn coping skills, goal development and setting boundaries. This can help alleviate obstacles and stress that come from every day life circumstances.
I use a person-centered approach to help identify thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that may get in the way of achieving your goals.
I am trained in the full DBT model and integrate various aspects of DBT into treatment as agreed upon by the therapist and client.
Knowing is the first step! My clinical experience allows me to offer information about your concerns in a way that's relatable and easy to understand.
