"When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be"( Lao Tzu). Life transitions are a constant thread in our lives, and sometimes a person needs a little guidance to help them make the transition and evolve from their efforts. As a social worker for more than 24 years, my clinical practice has enabled me to work with a diverse group of people representing all ages and stages of their lives and careers. I have appreciated helping each one with their challenges as they worked through their changes to evolve to their next stage of life.
My specialty area is bereavement/grief and life transitions for adults. Within this specialty area, clients may have the need for assistance with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, interpersonal and relationship issues or parenting concerns that can often increase the challenge of their life transition.
My goal is to assist my clients in becoming experts about themselves through education, insight building and development of healthy coping and communication skills. My primary mode of therapy is cognitive-behavioral, but I frequently find an eclectic approach, including spirituality, helpful to some clients.
