About me
Everyone has a right to have their own thoughts and feelings without shame and guilt, when feeling depressed, anxious, sad, uncertain or fearful. Taking the first step to seek counseling is courageous. I am here to support you in that process and provide you the opportunity to find the solutions you are seeking to achieve. Your happiness and contentment are my primary objective in our work together. I would look forward to working with you as your therapist.
I am licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and a Certified Shame Treatment Specialist, with over 40 years of professional work experience. I have helped my clients to overcome stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, obsessive compulsive disorder, relationship issues, bipolar disorder, & many other life adjustment concerns. I provide an open, safe and confidential environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
I would be honored to work with you.
