Nice to meet you
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 2 decades experience. My specialty areas are supporting clients with anxiety, depression, relationships challenges, life transitions, stress, and neurodiversity. I employ a variety of evidence-based practices to empower clients, helping them access coping strategies, improve relationships, and problem solve; with a focus on resilience and emotional well-being.
I view clients as having character qualities, past successes, and resilience that provide fertile ground for change. I view my role as clinician as guiding the process towards change while providing hope during the hard times.
