I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida and LICSW in D.C. with over 19 years of Social work experience working in the medical and case management field. Over the years I have worked with clients that have issues related to life changing events, building life skills, self-esteem issues, depression, anxiety, medical issues, relationship issues, and career challenges just to name a few. I am the therapist that will work towards getting you un-stuck, move you forward towards the course of self discovery and help you achieve your personal life goals! Therapy takes work but the process does not have to feel like it. I enjoy talking to my clients and will ask engaging questions to get to the core of what is showing up as challenges in your life. You won't feel like you are in therapy due to my warm, engaging and easy going therapy style.
We will meet, I'll introduce myself to you, and in turn we start getting to know each other. During the first session I will review your intake forms and touch on the challenges that you are facing so that we can formulate our plan of activating the shift you want to make in your life.
My clinical approaches include Solution oriented therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing.
I specialize in the areas of Crisis counseling, Solution Focused therapy, Aging & Geriatrics, Veteran related issues, and Life coaching.
Clients that are engaged, participate in homework (if assigned during sessions) and show up ready to do the work!
