I am a clinical social worker providing psychotherapy to children, adolescents, adults, and families. My areas of specialty and interest are LGBTQ-identified people, kids and teens, and people struggling with eating disorders. I value critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, and humor within the therapeutic relationship. I treat my clients with respect and acknowledge that they are the authorities of their own lives. I make an effort to emphasize strengths without invalidating very real feelings or minimizing problems. I collaborate with my clients to develop effective and individualized treatment plans to empower them to make changes in their own lives.
I have experience working with children, teens, and families suffering from depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ issues, and eating disorders. Many of my young clients struggle with ADHD and behavioral problems. I have also worked with HIV-positive youth and adults, and individuals and families impacted by the criminal justice system.
I understand that seeking out help for yourself or your child can be scary, intimidating, and stressful. Know that by getting this far you have already started to make progress and take back control of your life. I look forward to working with you.
