I work with adults and I specialize in all forms of anxiety: Panic Disorder, GAD, PTSD, Phobias, OCD, Agoraphobia. I also focus on insomnia/sleep disturbances, adjustment disorder and depression. I work with couples as well and have completed the Gottman Method Couples Therapy Level 3 training. Having been a medical social worker for 15 years, I have a passion for working with healthcare professionals. The occupational stressors of healthcare are unique and I have the experience of having practiced social work in a hospital for many years. I am also passionate about working with people within their faith traditions.
