LCSW, 20 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Hi, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2009 and Doctor of Behavioral Health based in California. I received my Doctorate from Arizona State University and my Masters from Norfolk State University. I have been practicing for 20 years. I specialize in adolescent girls ages 15+ and women’s issues to include but not limited to Depressive symptoms, Low self-esteem, and life transitions. My goal is to help all find their values, self-worth and decrease negative symptomatology that are impacting their daily functioning.
In our first session we’ll start with brief introductions, I will ask questions that help me understand you, then dive into the specific challenges you’re facing. This will allow us to create a plan specific for you so that we can work towards identified goals in our follow-up sessions.
Having worked with adolescent girls and women for the past 20 years, I’ve developed a tried-and true-playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I love working with adolescents and women. My clients are eager to make a change in their lives and do something different. My clients are ready to work through and process trauma and hardships so that they can move forward in life. My clients are willing and ready to do the hard self-work that allows them to become the best versions of themselves.
CBT is used to identify goals, provide understanding of symptoms, identify core values and belief systems, challenge negative thought processes development of positive coping skills that work for each specific client.
