Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in the helping profession for 22 years and have experience in a variety of areas that range from depression to couples counseling. I have worked with people with a broad variety of mental illnesses and emotional difficulties. My therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which concentrates on realizing that your thought patterns affect your emotions, which, in turn, can affect your behaviors. I look forward to working with you to help you to eliminate or control troubling symptoms so that you can function better and can increase well-being and healing.
In a first therapy session, I like to create a warm and welcoming environment where the client feels comfortable sharing. I’ll start by introducing myself, explaining my therapeutic approach, and discussing confidentiality to ensure trust. We'll explore the reasons that brought you to therapy, your goals, and any concerns you might have. I’ll ask about you background, including family, relationships, and life experiences, to better understand your perspective. Together, we’ll set the groundwork for future sessions and establish a pace that feels right for you as the client, ensuring the space feels collaborative and safe.
What makes me effective as a therapist is my deep understanding of how different issues impact individuals. This allows me to tailor interventions specifically to each client. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients recognize and shift negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be holding them back. My ability to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment while offering practical tools for change helps clients feel empowered and engaged in their healing process.
I bring extensive experience in addressing a broad variety of mental illnesses and emotional challenges. My therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which I believe is well-suited to help clients identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that may be contributing to their difficulties. I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client.
My therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which concentrates on realizing that your thought patterns affect your emotions, which, in turn, can affect your behaviors. In practice we will go over coping skills, etc. to assist with decreasing symptoms.
