Hello! I am a proud Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and passionate advocate that has provided 20+ years of therapy, social work, advocacy, and program management in support of under-served and vulnerable populations with severe, persistent mental health symptoms and functional impairments. I am skilled in helping adult and older adult Clients to reduce the intensity, duration, and frequency of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that they feel are getting in the way of their ability to function and experience happiness, peace, and contentedness. We work to increase self-esteem, stability, and reconnect with a sense of purpose.
I believe the better we understand the sources of roadblocks in our lives, the better we can manage what stands in our way. I am comfortable working with a variety of people from any walk of life, and I am eclectic in my approach to helping people explore their needs and struggles because one size does not fit all!
I want to collaborate with you to build trust and provide validation in ways that others in our lives often cannot. I want you to feel seen and heard, and to support your concerns and your process towards your goals. I look forward to meeting you so we can discuss options for services and see if we are a good fit on your mental health wellness journey!
