I am a social worker with over 20 years of experience working with clients from infants (support to parents) to geriatrics. I believe that our thoughts are powerful to change our behavior. Using Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), I work with clients to harness the power of their thoughts to move from assuming and demanding others and ourselves to do or not do certain things to realizing what is within their control and what is not. This difference results in changing their emotional reactions to their everyday situations. We often have been taught to "just change our behavior" and then we get down on ourselves when we can't. This change can radically change how people see themselves and the world around them. By using analogies, client's everyday lives, and giving tools that clients can practice, and I work with clients to feel better and see the World through a different lens. By the way, we have fun doing it, too.
