About me
I provide social and psychological services to at-risk adults, adolescents, and children. I have a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and a Masters degree in Mental Health Counseling. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor I am trained as a Certified Forensic Mental Health Evaluator. I am also trained Certified Correctional Health Professional and a Certified Addiction Professional. I started my career as working with youth at risk. I also have extensive experience working with Law Enforcement, Mental Health Court, Psychiatrists, and Corrections Officers, inmates and their families. I specialize in treating individuals with Anxiety and Depression, Bipolar, Trauma/PTSD from Sexual or Physical abuse, as well as Behavior issues,emotional abuse and anger management . A majority of my career has been spent working with dual diagnosis clients, and individuals suffering from severe mental illness. I believe that early intervention can help transform children and their parents into empowered families and individuals. I utilize a mixture of the cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, strengths-based, and postmodern theoretical approaches that assist individuals in consciously deciding what to focus on and not allow unwanted or intrusive thoughts in. These modalities also help a client to envision a future and acquire the coping mechanisms and skills to achieve the goals he/she desires.
