I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has over 10 years of clinical experience across a variety of settings including outpatient clinic, crisis intervention, inpatient psychiatric, school-based and community-based counseling. I have experience working with the military population, adults, children, adolescents and families. My interests and specialties include: Teen Issues; parent/child or partner relational problems; suicide assessment and risk reduction; mood disorders; anxiety disorders; anger and stress management; dual diagnoses; trauma related issues and pediatric related issues. I use a variety of modalities which incorporate best practice from DBT, Psychoeducation, Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused, Short-term Problem Solving, Person-Centered, Functioning Family Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Motivational Interviewing with children age 4 and up, adults and families. I believe in a strength-based approach that is holistic, integrative and client-centered. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate atmosphere in which clients can safely explore and work through feelings, thoughts, images and beliefs that may be keeping them stuck.
