Asking for therapy is not easy, but it is a sign of strength that I support.My practice is client-centered, based on a systems approach & family-of-origin themes/issues. I focus on helping my clients to find solutions to their emotional challenges and to work through transitions, crises, trauma & adjustments so they can develop & enhance their behavioral health. I avoid "cookbook" approaches, and use evidence & strength-based psychotherapy & counseling to guide adults, youth, families & couples to achieve their own positive solutions.I enjoy helping young adults, teens, & other helping professionals/educators deal with life stressors effectively.
I have helped thousands of individuals & families restore and maintain their emotional health when faced with transitions, conflict, trauma, grief and adjustments. I practice brief solution-focused therapy and longer term psychotherapy. My experience includes in-patient psychiatry, out-patient, schools, courts, substance abuse & shelters with a diverse range of people.
I am a career long member of ACSW, a certified Trauma & Loss Consultant, & a School Social Worker. I provide workshops & continuing education on a wide range of subjects from ADHD, Grief & Loss in Children to Ethics for Social Work. I provide field instruction & professional clinical supervision to entry level social workers.
