I have a BSW, MSW, in social work and is a LCSW and certified as a RPT in private practice. I bring many years of experience to my work, having worked in child welfare for over 20 years, helping family manage trauma and other traumatic experiences. I worked successfully with young children, adolescents, and families to resolve many issues including anxiety, depression, disruptive behavior, attachment issues, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I have no doubt that by providing a safe compassionate space and effective tools, patients are able to solve problems and find answers. As a clinical social worker, I frame my treatment approach to meet my client’s individual needs. I have effectively used Play therapy, Sand tray, CBT, and Person-Centered Therapy. Using an individualized approach grants clients to work through difficult emotional issues and helps with understanding the cause of distress while developing a concrete plan for treatment and relieving the distress and trauma.
