Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Colorado, Illinois, and New York. I have been a practicing therapist for 12 years and my work has focused on working with individuals on their mental health and substance use recovery. My experience has brought me to work with many life transitions and stressors including: substance use, mental health, religious deconstruction, pre-natal and post-partum counseling, domestic violence survivors and criminal justice-involved individuals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
First sessions will focus on understanding your history, mutual goal setting and discussing the best treatment options for your goals. Please be aware that if scheduling through Grow, it shows all available appointments, but I request at least 48 hours notice. If you schedule within 48 hours, I may be in touch to reschedule.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a compassionate and holistic provider, my focus is on you as a whole. I will work with you always to center treatment around what is most important to you and to offer recommendations and ideas to help you manage problems arising.
