Do you or one of your family members or employees suffer from anxiety and depression, work performance challenges, issues with self-esteem, anger and stress management? Holding onto these problems can often interfere with your job, family relationships, and day-to-day life. Your goals may be short term or aimed at long term improvements. If you are interested in improving your life in a way that is meaningful , I will work collaboratively with you to set goals and develop a personalized plan.
My approach is trauma-informed, strength-based, culturally sensitive and client-centered. I use a variety of evidence-based practices and work with clients holistically. With compassion, understanding and experience, I will support you in defining and achieving your goals.
With over 35 years as a Registered Social Worker and Occupational Therapist, I have worked in hospitals, community, and private practice. I understand that it takes courage to take this step . I am here to assist you as i believe in each person's strength and capacity to heal.
