About me

Greetings! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker who has worked 17 years in the area of mental health. I believe a strong foundation of trust and communication is necessary between a client and counselor for progress to be made. I use several modalities, depending on the issues and background of each individual. I am a good listener, caring and sensitive. I will also provide a balanced plan for working with your issues you want to cover. I consider it a privilege to be able to work with you !

I have been working with Lori for just under two years and she has helped me completely turn my life around. She's even gone so far as to learn about different cultures, praxeologies and methodologies to help assist me with taking control of my life. Thank you so much!
