About me
            Hello!  Thank you for choosing to read my profile.  
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois with experience serving a wide variety of populations.   I teach Introduction to Counseling and Introduction to Social Work (wrote the text for that class) at a local community college.    I have been a Board Member of NASW (National Association of Social Workers) and am an instructor for the Licensure Exam Preparation Class.  I received my Master of Social Work degree from Washington University in St. Louis. 
Although I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, I do lean heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy.   I also incorporate effective communication strategies and provide support in identifying additional resources outside of our time together.
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to the possibility of working with you.
