About me
I am a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with a certification in trauma (CCTP-Certified Clinical Trauma Professional), and I practice in Nevada. Over the past 18 years, I have had multiple experiences in the field of Health & Human Services. I have served in roles such as a Day Treatment Teacher to severe emotionally disturbed children and their families. I have also provided supports as a case manager in early intervention (birth to 3 years) as well as those who have intellectual disability (and related conditions). In the recent years I have provided clinical/behavioral consultation to individuals, families, and community group home providers.
My approach in working with individuals comes from a place of compassion, and attentiveness towards what my clients are communicating. It is my strongest desire to ensure that you feel supported as we work through challenges with effective problem solving. I like to take the approach of viewing the person in a holistic manner as there are many parts to a person which makes them whole. I assess each persons needs and develop treatment plans that may use multiple treatment modalities rather than trying to fit someone one's needs into one treatment modality.
