Hey there!! I'm a licensed clinical social worker located in Connecticut. I received my Bachelors in Social Work from Central Connecticut State University and my Masters in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania. I have been a practicing social worker in health care since 2006 and in private practice since 2021. I enjoy working with clients at all ages and stages and specialize in anxiety, depression and chronic health issues.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
First sessions are a lot like first dates and can be awkward when getting to know someone. You can expect to go over some basics of how the sessions will run, my expectations and confidentiality basics. From there, I'd love to learn what brings you to therapy and what you're hoping to get out of this relationship. Together, we will be able to formulate a treatment plan.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength as a provider is my interest in learning. I will always ask questions, research, push to know more - about my clients, about their situation, about whatever they present with. This thirst for knowledge helps me to understand my clients and help them feel not so alone.
