Clinical Social Work/Therapist, MSW, LCSW
Trust is the most important part of any relationship. It's important to be able to trust others but more importantly to trust yourself. “The true key is trust in self, for when I trust myself I fear no one else, I took control of my life, just as anyone can, I want everyone to see it’s in the palm of your hand, the past is gone, the future yet unborn, but right here and now is where it all goes on”-MCA Beastie Boys. With trust you can increase your connection to others as well as increase your ability to tolerate life’s ups and downs and enjoy life in the moment.
Due to various experiences including life transitions, traumas, stress, issues at work or school, our ability to trust others and ourselves can be shattered making life difficult to tolerate. Working together we can rebuild that trust and explore the patterns that contributed to getting to this point in order for you to live you best life.
I would describe my therapeutic style as grounded, non-judgmental, at times irreverent and always genuine. I partner with clients struggling with Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, complex-PTSD, Dissociative Disorders and impulsive behaviors. I have specialized training in multiple trauma treatment modalities, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as well as EMDR.
