I have been a Social Worker for 29 years. I have a bachelor's and master's in Social Work. My primary employment has been with the Department of Children and Family Services for 24 years. I have worked in the capacity of a child protection investigator, a foster care worker, an adoption worker, a child welfare supervisor of all field programs, a child welfare manager, and as a statewide child welfare trainer. As a social worker, my PRN employment includes hospitals (6yrs) mental health and substance abuse (6yrs), hospice (1yr), schools, nursing homes, and assisted living. I am a TBRI practitioner and adoption competent. As a therapist, I am well-rounded with experience and knowledge in many domains.
You are the expert of your own life and no one can fix you, but you. The client-therapist relationship is a partnership in healing. My mother was a social worker and I give her homage to the social worker in me.
