Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker based in PA. I received my MSW from Temple University(go Owls) and have practiced in diverse settings for 21 years. I love what I do and I love being on the journey with my clients to achieve whatever their goals may be. I strive to provide a safe environment for my clients where they can be their authentic selves with no judgment, agenda, or criticism. We are all worthy of self-care and however it looks for each individual.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I do not come in with a plan during the first session(sorry). I want to get to know you and you get to know me. My only initial agenda is to make you comfortable with sharing as much or as little at that moment. Seeking therapy is a huge self-rewarding step and I like to remind my clients of that when we meet.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I believe my open-minded thinking and past experiences help my clients in seeing their strengths.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with individuals who are open to being challenged and provided feedback. My clients are eager to improve but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious about situations, relationships, or internal thoughts.
