I have been a social worker for 12 years and have worked in various settings including and not limited to, an inpatient psychiatric unit, substance use disorder detox and residential rehab programs, oncology, medical social work and outpatient therapy. I enjoy working with diverse populations, empowering them to overcome barriers to meet goals and sustain a healthy lifestyle based on their goals and needs through a strength based prospective.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and for me to start to understand your goals for therapy. It is important to me that you feel comfortable and that I am a fit for you as well, and it is an opportunity for you to ask me questions as well.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Each person comes with their own individual strengths, and I enjoy helping clients recognize the strengths they possess already and building on them to meet their goals.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is one of a few modalities I have used in my practice with clients. CBT is a goal oriented approach towards therapy where we will look at and explore the connections between emotions, thoughts and behaviors, while providing tools to manage emotions and thoughts.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

ACT can help clients accept challenging situations in their lives instead of avoiding them. Using mindfulness skills and staying focused don the present moment accepting thoughts and feelings without judgment clients learn to adapt to challenges and live a meaningful life.
