Hi there! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker servicing mental health needs for over 10 years, graduated with my undergraduates in Psychology and Spanish, followed by my Master's of Science in Social Work, and ended with my Doctorate of Clinical Leadership in Social Work. I've previously worked with multi-ethnic children in foster group homes, adults in the Dallas area, with women, and most recently with active duty military personnel. I help people process and heal from trauma, which is a privilege for me, and I help people also deal with day to day life challenges brought on by mental health concerns in our lives.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
For our first session, I'd like to get to know you, what brings you here, and some about your background. Knowing your goals and where you are at with them when coming for help, assists in knowing how to tailor a plan that will help us achieve your goals in therapy.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I acknowledge people's challenges from their perspective and in light of the society and societal expectations that we live in. I bring in a trained listening ear, encourage compassion, awareness, acceptance and growth while recognizing sometimes some of the systematic challenges that we may deal with.
