I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years experience working with children and teenagers as a school social worker. I specialize in working with children and families struggling with behavioral issues at home and in school; and with children experiencing life transitions. I have extensive experience working with children with ADHD, Autism, social skill deficits, behavioral difficulties, anxiety, and overall emotional regulation.
I am a strength-based therapist utilizing cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and client-centered therapy. I am currently a social worker at a public therapeutic day school working with children and adolescents. I have experience in working with children and their families to problem solve, resolve conflicts, and make positive choices when faced with obstacles.
You have begun your path to emotional well being and I would like to help you as you make this journey. I enjoy working closely with parents or caregivers who are seeking support. My goal is to provide a supportive and trusting therapeutic environment to help you improve your overall quality of life.
