Crises or life stressors are often what initially bring people to therapy. Others come to work on old issues that continue to re-surface, causing problems for the individuals themselves or in their relationships with family, or at work. Many people find therapy to be a place where they can work on increasing personal insight and self-awareness in order to live more fulfilling lives, and work toward achieving their highest potential. Whatever brings you here, therapy can be a place to help you restore balance in your life and live life to the fullest. In therapy, we work together to bring about lasting change.
Much of the success of therapy depends on a comfortable fit between the individual and the therapist. I work with individuals, couples, and families. My approach is interactive, utilizing evidence-based psychology including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and meditation, and holistic and spiritual approaches according to client interest.
I have been in private practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2003. My past experiences include completing psychiatric evaluations in an emergency department, working in a psychiatric hospital, a residential treatment for children and adolescents, a halfway house for adults with substance abuse issues, and at a nursing home/rehabilitation center.
