What happens when your vocation routinely requires you to be there at someone else's worst moment of their life? What happens when you cannot shake the day off when you come home? Who can you reach out to when you give all you can and it never seems to be enough for the people you're trying to help, your boss, or your family when you are home? How did a "career" become your life and the highs and lows seem to define your worth? Healthy processing of traumatic events and their proper placement in your life can help you realign thinking patterns, release negativity, and reclaim joy.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience. I enjoy helping individuals uncover and get connected to who they really are. I truly believe that each person is their own best expert in their life. I use Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused, and Narrative techniques to help people get connected to their own values and set themselves on a path to live the fulfilling life that they want to live. I find that we often need to uncover conditioned beliefs that have been instilled by culture and family systems that don't align with our true selves.

Most marriage and family therapists believe a wide range of individual problems must be understood within the context of the family and social environments. I believe in this systems approach to mental and emotional problems and have the goal to change problematic, repetitive interactions that contribute to the presenting problem. As a trauma informed therapist, I am aware of the long-lasting effects of childhood trauma and will explore that using a narrative therapy approach. Our goal for therapy is the reduce distress and improve functionality. In what ways are you feeling not OK? Let’s help you start feeling OK.

I offer support, reorganizing, and reimagining life for those coping with chronic illness, dementia, and losses of all kinds. If you need help getting through grief that's what I do.

The dementia group is the 3rd Saturday of each month at https://www.facebook.com/Riversidedementiasupport/- and it's free of charge. I approach life, and therapy looking for the joy while managing the tough times- not letting them manage life. Call to see me.
