Greetings! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, trained to get to know you wholistically and to understand your perspective based on the totality of your lived experiences. I have worked in the mental health field for more than 2 decades, in a variety of settings and capacities. I look forward to helping you become the best version of yourself.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session will be an opportunity to become familiar with each other, through non-judgmental exploration of what brought you to seek therapy. Together we will develop achievable goals and set a course for treatment, if you decide we are a good therapeutic team.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a mental health professional I am skilled at listening, being empathic, and developing a rapport with patients though unconditional positive regard. I am supportive and see the good in you, even when you struggle to.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy working with individuals who are considering change and need help understanding how to move forward. I enjoy asking and answering questions to uncover areas of strength and vulnerability. My clients understand that the magic of therapy exists beyond the therapeutic sessions - you are encouraged to reflect and practice new skills and behaviors to drive your success.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize a strength-based approach, informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. CBT helps us to understand the interplay between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and therefore gives us a way to break ineffective cycles. CBT is effective for anxiety and depression.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-Based Therapy can be applied to other therapeutic interventions or as a stand alone approach to develop a centered and grounded sense of self. Mindfulness helps to refocus us back to the present moment, allowing us peacefully and calmly experience the moment for what it is.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution Focused Brief Therapy is an excellent approach for issues addressed in teletherapy. The focus is on empowerment and strength identification to navigate through interpersonal and situational challenges.
