Feeling adrift, like you are treading water? Let me provide a safe harbor. I am a therapist who takes a holistic approach to assist each person in identifying solutions to their issues. I have a wide scope experience: I’ve spent much of my therapy career with adults in crisis, serious mental illness, depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions and substance/alcohol abuse.
My approach is person and trauma-centered, multi-modal, pulling predominantly from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution Focused. I am a certified supervisor for Clinical Social Workers. Previous experience also includes macro-level social work within local government
Asking for help takes courage. I applaud you for taking this BIG step in your healing journey and look forward to hearing from you.
