I am a clinical social worker, I have been in the field 28 years. I love meeting new people and working with them to find solutions to whatever issue you are struggling with at the time. I will be working with you listening to you to providing support. I will provide questions that will assist you in determining your best action steps.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
The first session is really a time for you to start sharing your reason for attending therapy. I will most likely be asking a a lot of questions, in order to get to know you better. This session is an opportunity to ge to know me and my style and to decide if we are a good match for the work you would like to pursue in therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am a very good listener. I am very open and non judgmental. I am caring and supportive.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
If you are motivated and interested in making changes I will be happy to work with you!

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I like this method as it allows you to see the growth you are making regarding changes you would like to make in your life. It is very concrete in it's action steps.
Family Therapy
Our families, however they may be put together, have a huge influence on our thoughts and actions as we grow and mature. I believe understanding where you came from is helpful in making steps forward when we want to change.
