My career as a classroom teacher, assistant principal and university professor served me well in my current practice as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I earned my Doctorate in Education/Ed.D. from Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, FL. As a university professor, I became the Multiple Subject Program Director, Graduate Reading Director, and Supervisor of Student Teachers with both national and international publications.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we will start with introductions, establish treatment goals, and develop a therapeutic alliance. It is my intention to help each client reach their potential in life. I will not criticize, judge, or make a client feel embarrassed, but rather, facilitate a level of comfort and authenticity.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Having worked with thousands of clients during the past 10 years in a variety of settings (hospital, private practice, group-clinical), I have been told by clients their awareness of my empathy, passion, and clinical judgment. Part of my philosophy as a teacher-educator was, students don't care what you teach them until they know you care about them". I believe the same is true in private practice: Clients don't care what you teach them until they know you care about them.
