30 years offering treatment
I am a licensed certified social worker for about 30 years. I have worked with families, children and couples in addition to strong background in mental illness. My approach to the therapeutic process is a cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe gaining insight is only half the work; the second part is implementing changes in behaviors and thoughts. I believe homework for clients can be useful and is helpful for the client to identify his/her own gains and areas of continued work. I believe every individual has the capacity to change. I believe you start where the client is and treat everyone with dignity and respect. I look forward to speaking to you.

As hard as we try, sometimes it's not possible to move beyond trauma, bad relationships or grief without the right support. You might find yourself not sleeping or feeling anxious and depressed. You might have trouble with low confidence or self-judgment. This can seep into other areas of your life, such as relationships or how you feel about your weight or appearance. I help people who are overwhelmed by life but are ready to heal and make changes for the future. Perhaps it’s time for you to create a life full of joy, fulfillment, purpose and self-love. I’m committed to helping you decrease symptoms, while also building long-lasting skills. I offer effective techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), depending on your needs. I also take a new approach to weight, believing that you can learn to be healthy and happy at any size. Others describe me as nonjudgmental, supportive and cheerful. My goal is to help you achieve yours, whatever they may be. I’ve had clients who’ve gone back to school, gotten promotions and changed their outlook on life. You can learn to believe in yourself and feel good about the future. Contact me to set up a free consultation and begin your journey.
