I'm a clinical social worker with experience treating children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. I graduated with my masters degree in social work (MSW) in 2008, earned by clinical licensure (LCSW) in 2010, and doctorate in clinical social work (DSW) in 2016. I believe that every client deserves a treatment modality created to meet their own particular needs and symptoms, and my role, as a competent practitioner, is to craft that treatment approach that maximizes the client's strengths, reduces/alleviates their current symptoms, and offers new patterns of engaging with their life and the world around them that prevent relapse into old and destructive patterns of behavior.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our initial session will briefly include introductions, and then, I want to explore what brought you to treatment. I believe that the relationship between a client and therapeutic provider is an organic experience that will develop at its own pace and context through the treatment process, and thus, I don't have prescriptive activities or agenda for every first session. The client and their needs drive that first session and our subsequent interactions with one another.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I'm a highly competent clinical social work with formal training in a wide range of clinical modalities of treatment and the experience to hone those skills into being an effective/pragmatic therapeutic provider.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Christian Counseling
Through a combination of faith/spiritually-based exercises and psycho-therapy techniques, we'll work to reduce your symptoms and deepen your understanding/relationship with a higher power.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Through a structured series of exercises, we'll explore the underlying thoughts, concealed beliefs, and previously learned (and sometimes maladaptive) ways in which we see ourselves in the context of our world that subsequently cause our symptoms in order to remedy their most significant impact on our lives.
Couples Counseling
Through various therapeutic approaches (including cognitive-behavioral therapy, family systems, etc.), we'll seek to mediate current concerns, realign both members of the couple's focus to shared goals, and establish new patterns of interaction with one another to reduce or alleviate the most concerning symptoms causing the current distress in the relationship. This approach can include a mixture of group and individual sessions in order to achieve treatment goals.
Existential
Through various therapeutic approaches, we'll seek to remediate or completely alleviate the currently symptoms that one is experiencing by exploring greater questions of the human condition like our roles in our family, profession, community, nation, and world to provide a better sense of direction in life.
Family Therapy
By systematically exploring the interactions and relationships between all of the members of the family, we'll seek new patterns of behavior to improve the family's current functioning and reduce the problematic symptoms. This approach can include sessions with all members of the family or sessions with only selected members as we strive to achieve our therapeutic goals.
On average, AvMed clients pay $0-$20
