As a Master of Social Work (MSW) professional and counselor with over 30 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge, skill, and compassion to support you through whatever challenges you're facing. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in diverse roles including School Social Worker, Psychiatric Social Worker, College Counselor, and Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Counselor.
👥 I work comfortably with older children, teens, and adults, offering individual, couples, and family therapy. My clinical background is strong, but my approach always emphasizes wellness, self-care, and practical solutions.
🧠 My therapeutic style is eclectic, solution-focused, and client-centered. I draw from a wide range of evidence-based models, including:
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
- Structural Family Therapy
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Trauma-Informed Therapy
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Group Therapy
- Harm Reduction & Relapse Prevention
Clients often describe me as warm, compassionate, and approachable. I bring a sense of humor to my work and avoid taking on an “expert” role—instead, I collaborate with you, offering insights and suggestions when invited, while always respecting your perspective. This down-to-earth style helps build strong, trusting relationships that foster real change.
👨👩👧👦 For parents, I have a particular knack for connecting with adolescents—especially those who may be seen as oppositional, defiant, or hard to reach. I genuinely enjoy working with teens, especially those facing complex challenges. My experience includes supporting youth with depression, anxiety, self-harm, trauma, and neurodevelopmental conditions such as Tourette’s Syndrome (which I understand both personally and professionally), ADHD, OCD, and PDD. My background in school-based clinical work also allows me to support families navigating the education system.
🧩 Common concerns I help clients with include:
- Marital and relationship issues
- Parent-teen conflict
- Depression and anxiety
- Trauma and self-harming behaviors
- Body image and self-regulation challenges
- Workplace stress and career transitions
