As a passionate clinical social worker, I'm dedicated to empowering families, parents, and children to navigate life's challenges. I've worked successfully with families to improve techniques, maintain healthy boundaries, utilize effective communication and active listening skills, all while rebuilding trust within families. My professional practice is guided by a commitment to cultural competence and inclusivity. As the spouse of a veteran, I possess an understanding of military protocol, lifestyle, and the unique daily readiness required, enabling me to offer culturally aware and sensitive support.
I provide a nurturing and supportive environment, guiding my clients to improved coping skills, communication techniques, and self-care practices. My ultimate hope is to increase my clients' ability to regulate their emotions/behaviors, initiate and maintain the change they desire for themselves, and foster a more self-sustaining lifestyle.
To meet each client's unique needs, I incorporate various therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), art/journaling, guided imagery/mindfulness meditation, and other tailored approaches. I hope to foster an environment of respect and sensitivity ensuring every client feels heard, understood, and valued in their healing journey.
