Sometimes the weight of the world can feel like it's crashing down on you. You may not know where to turn or what to do. Having a third party perspective can be helpful in seeing things clearer and developing a plan moving forward. I have a strong belief that the things we tell ourselves, reinforces and impacts our decisions and behavior. I am a clinical social worker who specializes in substance abuse disorders and mental health issues. Whether you are just looking for help with a stressful life event or you are ready to make a major life change, I am here to help.
Mutual trust and respect in the therapeutic relationship is imperative and a primary goal in our work together. Areas of focus are often family dynamics, learned behaviors, boundaries, communication skills and cognitive distortions. It is my goal to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment while also encouraging growth and postive change.
Feel free to reach out and schedule an intake appointment where we can discuss what brings you to therapy as well as what your goals for our time together are. I look forward to hearing and working with you.
