I am a doctor of social work and a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years in the US and Canada. I am also a Professor of Social Work, lecturing on various mental health topics and training new clinicians. I work with adults at various stages of their careers and families but often feel stuck and unsure of where to go or what to do next.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session is to hear your concerns and create a collaborative direction for our future sessions. I provide a space that is non-judgmental, inviting, and understanding.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My strengths are 1) I provide a safe space for individuals to be who they are, 2) I work on a strength-based lens to build and affirm individuals, and 3) I provide practical tools that help you manage symptoms between sessions.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

The foundation of my practice is to help individuals understand their thought processes that lead to anxiety, depression, and related issues. Creating a safe place to understand your thought patterns will allow you to see things in a new light, leading to understanding and healing.

Motivational Interviewing

I help you discover your "why" to help you move along to growth and positive change. Change is not a huge process but more a series of consistent habits, and together, we will handle the ups and downs of motivation to get you to your overall goal.

Trauma-Focused CBT

The lingering events of trauma can create flashbacks, avoidance, anxiety, and depressed moods. Using various tools to help manage the aftermath of trauma will make you feel more in control and overall healed.
