New to Grow
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 13 years of experience working with individuals who have faced a variety of challenges that have made it difficult to achieve their full potential and enjoy their lives. My approach is collaborative and based on the individual needs and goals of each client. I strive to facilitate personal growth and self-awareness while supporting clients to discover solutions to the problems they face. An important component of my practice is helping clients to identify and utilize coping strategies that will serve to ensure long-term well-being.
