LCSW, 8 years of experience
Welcome, It must have taken quite a bit of courage to be able to reach out for help. You have already taken the first step to making change! A little bit more about me; I am a licensed social worker in the state of Florida, Georgia, and Massachusetts. I own a small group practice so if you aren't able to get an appointment with me, I get get you scheduled with another therapist. My specialty is working with individuals who have experienced trauma and specifically, adults who grew up in dysfunctional, chaotic or unsupported environments.
I believe that your comfortability and our rapport are critical factors in your making progress in your goals, so if at any time you feel not comfortable or not heard correctly, I encourage you to let me know. I want to help you make progress in your goals as quickly and effectively as possible to prevent as little disruption from your life as possible.
I use a variety of modalities and techniques; I will focus and tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have received trauma focused training in Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), EMDR derived techniques, and Cognitive Processing Therapy. I also have taken trainings in DBT and regularly implement various aspects of this modality into my practice.
