About me
I am a licensed clinical social worker with decades of experience working with adults of all ages with special emphasis on anxiety, depression and related issues. I am available online, in person as needed and offer sessions if requested with my certified therapy dog.
My practice specializes in depression and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, life change and crisis, relationship issues, divorce and recovery, communication skills, trauma, self care and work/life balance. In addition, I am very experienced with serious mental illness. My main therapeutic modalities are cognitive behavioral therapy, strengths based and some ACT.
"In a world that can seem more and more divisive in both personal and situations around us, we all often need the opportunity to process these struggles that life creates. I have been fortunate to work in a career that involves passion and commitment to supporting others in a path of personal growth."
