New to Grow
I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience in the field of mental health. I use an ecclectic style of therapy based on the person, situation, and needed level of care. I believe in working with the whole person; not just the mental health aspect but spiritual, physical, and emotional aspects of each person. Meeting where you are and helping you move forward to where you want to be,
During our first session, I like to focus on what brought you to therapy; you can tell me as much or as little as you want during our first session. You can also ask questions of me so that you can feel comfortable.
I'm a great listener; when working with couples-I listen to both sides equally and hold both parties accountable. I am supportive and help each client feel seen and heard. We are in it together no one is alone.
I don't have an ideal client: I am willing to work with anyone who is willing to work with me. I have experience with clients who suffer from anxiety, depression, manic depressive disorder, couples therapy, and clients who may be feeling stuck and just need someone to talk to about the next steps. I'm looking for clients willing to being open and honest and ready to do the work to move forward.
I like to give homework that challenges the negative thoughts and replace them with positive thoughts and actions
