I am a licensed clinical social worker with 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. My experience has been in the areas of depression, anxiety and loss; infertility, miscarriage and adoption issues; coping skills training for anger expression, self esteem, bullying and self injurious behaviors; individual, family and couples therapy; and support to children and adolescents with divorce issues.

I can help you resolve the problems for which you are seeking treatment but also to help you to identify your strengths that will allow you to experience happiness and peace within yourself and others, and to live a life that you envision!!
