LCSW, 40 years of experience
New to Grow
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who has over 25 years of experience working with people across all ages around all the major life transitions and mental health issues. I have practiced in both inpatient, outpatient and partial hospitalization programs as well as medical hospitals and emergency rooms. I have a passion for helping people realize that they are not defined by their physical or mental health conditions.
Our first session is an opportunity for you to tell me what motivated you to reach out for support and to see if you feel we are a good fit. I will also share with you a bit about who I am and answer any questions or freely address any concerns you may have about reaching out for support.
I am a warm and compassionate person who strives to treat others the way I would want to be treated. I have a very relaxed style and do not pretend to have all the answers at all times. I am spontaneous and genuine in my interactions with those I am working with and hope that together we will find your path to a greater sense of wellbeing.
I enjoy working with clients who understand that therapy is a process of finding your unique path towards feeling better.
Used to help clients understand that they have the ability to change how they feel and experience life stresses by how they think about these situations; our thoughts drive our feelings towards what we experience.
Talking through our life experiences and struggles can help us to see that these life events do not define 100% of who we are.
Everyone grieves differently and deserves a safe space to process loss. Healing requires time and acceptance.
