I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the States of Maine and Massachusetts. I am authorized to provide diagnostic and treatment services to adults, 18 years and older, including the aging population, 65 and older. I have held this level of expertise for over 25 years. I am also recognized , and certified to provide these services under the federal Medicare program. My practice has been primarily at the acute hospital level of care and this has included: in the emergency room setting providing evaluation and crisis treatment services; in the acute care medical setting in a consultant role providing evaluation and treatment services to inpatients presenting with significant non-medical health problems; and in acute psychiatric care units as member of the Multidisciplinary Treatment Team of psychiatrists, nurses and other clinical therapist, providing evaluation and treatment services to both patients and their families. I have also specialized in treatment services to persons with problems of addiction and have provided treatment in the acute care detoxification setting, and also outpatient treatment services, including court ordered, group treatment to men and women. I have enjoyed considerable success in these various treatment settings, and I feel this is primarily due to my approach to treatment. Early on in my career I settled into the client centered Rogerion technique of treatment developed by Carl Rogers in the 60's. This is a non-judgemental approach, and emphasizes the focus of treatment is always where the client "is at" during any point. The process is to first in understand what is happening for them at the time of my intervention, and then in providing ongoing support and guidance based on extensive experience, through the treatment process. I have natural interest in people and sincere desire to be in a helping role towards the patients/clients that I become involved with. For me there is a certain spiritual element to my work, and a personal benefit that I receive in being able to helping others to improve their quality of life as a result their work and my assistance.

Life is difficult. How you choose to deal with this reality directly affects the quality of your life. Living in the past will bring on depression since you cannot change what has already happened. Living in the future leads to anxiety as you experience worry about how to deal with what has yet to happen. You don't have to live that way. Individual therapy can help you learn to accept your past, deal with your future, and find the courage to live in the present moment, the place where living a quality life begins. As a psychotherapist, former hospital chaplain, and high school athletic coach, I possess a combination of life approaches (clinical skill, compassionate presence, individual encouragement) that can provide you with a unique therapeutic experience - one that can change your life for the better.

35 years offering treatment
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 35 years of experience working in inpatient and community mental health centers as well as with individuals who find they feel more comfortable in speaking to therapists in and from their own home settings. I have an expertise in working with clients dealing with PTSD, Mood Disorders, and some major mental health issues such as Schizophrenia. I am empathetic, compassionate, and strongly believe in meeting the client where they are and helping guide them towards feeling better about themselves, having better relationships with others, as well as attaining their goals in life . I have a healthy respect for people’s aspirations and sometimes use my well developed sense of humor to sometimes show clients the lighter side of their issues to use as a coping mechanism in handling their day to day stressors. I enjoy working with clients who have the courage to reach out for help with their issues and respect how difficult that may sometimes seem.
