I am an LCSW with 16 years experience supporting clients with depression, anxiety, grief, adjustment issues, self esteem and high conflict relationships. I have extensive experience serving first responders and veterans. Working in the private, non for profit and government sectors, I've served a large and eclectic group of individuals wanting to grow and facilitate change in their lives, create healthy boundaries and gain insight.
Your time is valuable. During our first session I am focused on engaging with you and getting an understanding of what you would like to accomplish during our time together. Sometimes it takes a minute for a client to get acclimated sharing their vulnerabilities and opening up to a new person. My goal is to put you at ease and normalize the therapy process.
I enjoy working with people from all walks of life. My approach is very down to earth and relatable.
As a clinician I strive to give each client a non judgemental, safe place to let down their guard and be themselves. No matter where one is in life, we all can have struggles and strive to be seen and heard.
Solution focused therapy is a shorter term modality and empowers and engages the client to examine their challenges and create a functioning and manageable reality.
