Do you feel that what you have been carrying has become too heavy to bear and has led to feelings of despair, disappointment and stripped you of your motivation to move forward? You want better and you know that you deserve better, but prior attempts to address the issues have been unsuccessful? Despite some things changing, the majority of things have remained the same and now you've come to the conclusion that talking to someone just may help? If you answered ‘Yes” to any of these questions, you are in the right place. If you've read this far, don't turn back now. Contact me to schedule a consultation and let's get to work.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 18 years of experience within the field, I specialize in assisting clients with managing anxiety, depression, trauma related symptoms and daily LIFE stressors. In addition, I also work with teens struggling with peer pressure, behavioral issues, identity crises, and lack of academic performance.
I provide space for clients to challenge patterns within their lives that are no longer serving them. I assist them with utilizing the tools they have to to lead gratifying lives. My professional experience and ability to relate to my clients on a personal level create an environment for clients that supports vulnerability and "real talk" in sessions.
