I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been in practice over 10 years providing individual, couples, and group therapy. I came to this profession a little later in life than many. This has granted me the opportunity to pull from my life experiences in being able to relate to my clients on a very personal level. I hope to provide not only a sense of support but a pathway to exploring your deeper self while addressing both short term and long term needs and goals.
My experience with critically ill and hospice clients has given me a passion to work with people who are grieving. Grief encompasses the loss of those we love and also the loss of unfulfilled dreams and desires. Grief is something that we will all come into contact with at some point in our life experience. I hope to be a support and companion in assisting my grieving clients through these difficult times.
I have experience with ages from young children to elderly. I have worked in settings that include institutional (i.e. hospitals) to homebound clients. I am not a fan of labels, either diagnostic or social. I prefer to understand my clients as individuals. However, there are times where those labels do help us to understand the symptoms and create an effective treatment plan.
I look forward to working with you on your life journey.
