About me
I have dedicated more than 40 years of my life to helping people who are struggling with anxiety and depression. Prior to starting my private practice three years ago, I worked with parents and children involved in the child welfare system who suffered significant trauma in their lives. I am a trauma certified therapist but also specialize in ADHD and HFA.
First and foremost, congratulations on taking the important step toward positive change in your life. I am both honored and eager to have the opportunity to support you on this journey. With over 20 years as a licensed clinical social worker and more than 40 years in the social work field, I have seen it all. Yet, I it is my mission to bring a fresh, practical perspective in our work together.
My background includes experience supporting people who have faced trauma, significant life events, anxiety, and depression. Additionally, I have a special place in my heart for those diagnosed with ADHD and on the Autism spectrum. My approach to therapy is holistic, focusing on how environmental factors influence functioning and well-being. In collaboration with each individual person and based on their unique needs, I select tried and true interventions from multiple evidence based therapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) with much focus on mindfulness.
I am committed to providing a safe, supportive environment for healing and believe in helping people find solutions in a nonjudgmental and efficient manner. Throughout our sessions, I will be open and honest while maintaining a respectful and supportive demeanor.
