Hello. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with 34 years of counseling experience. In 1991, I earned a Master of Social Service Administration (MSSA) Degree from the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western University in Cleveland, Ohio. https://case.edu/social work/ . Prior to my counseling work, I facilitated fund-raisers for non-profit charities in Cleveland, Ohio; and I was a very active volunteer in the Cleveland area. I am very proud of my affiliation with the Mandel School. It is home to 9 research and training centers, including 3 Centers of Excellence. I consider the school to be one of the best graduate social work schools in the United States. My professors were trained at Harvard, Smith, and the University of Washington. I provide holistic virtual addiction recovery counseling and virtual individual mental health counseling for adults and adolescents.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session, I discuss client goals and expectations for treatment and complete the diagnostic assessment.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strengths as a therapist are adaptability,versatility, and solution-focused treatment designed to provide education and relief beginning with the first session. Each client is sent resources to utilize between sessions.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Stress is stored at the cellular level in the body. I use self-compassion therapy, safe and sound protocol, CBT, and positive psychology to design interventions based upon presenting symptoms and the willingness of the client to learn new strategies and coping skills.
Mind-body approach
I am trained in positive psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TFCBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), grief therapy, health and wellness, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, self-compassion psychology, somatic therapy, and trauma interventions (including Stephen Porges' Safe and Sound Protocol).
