About me

I'm a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) licensed to serve in South Carolina and Tennessee. I earned my MSW from Barry University and I have been practicing for 25 years. I view my career choice as my vocation as well and I believe in a whole health approach, examining and improving on all areas of self. All areas of self are important and connected, and with my help, you can achieve a healthy balance within yourself.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session would be about gathering information about your concerns, challenges and goals and how best I can serve you in the following sessions in developing a individualized plan in addressing your areas of concern, challenge and improvement.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength is active listeing and being able to conceptualize a plan to help you on your journey of healing, growth and accomplishment.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work well with persons who have medical challenges and may have some grief and loss issues with their limitations. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious. I also work well with persons who experience caregiver stress and establishing self-care and boundaries when caring for others.

Linda learned a bit about me and then we discussed my insomnia. She was empowering and helpful to find a solution that would work. She is down to earth and understanding. So easy to talk to! I enjoyed our conversation and the help she is providing.
