I am an Ohio based Licensed Independent Social Worker with 12 years of experience. I have experience with clients of all ages, from school-aged to older adults and have worked in clinical, community and school settings. I have worked with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, anger and behavioral issues. In my practice I combine a strength based focus with cognitive behavioral and solution focused therapies. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective and will help a client evaluate all areas of their life to determine what is going well and what concerns they have. I am passionate about helping a client reach their goals in an efficient time frame and to build skills to allow clients to navigate life's challenges well beyond our time together. I rely on client feedback to determine what strategies are working and when new strategies may need to be implemented. I believe that no one knows you better than you do and I am committed to helping you find strategies that work and will not waste time on anything you don't believe is helpful. I want to partner with you in building a happy, positive and confident outlook in life and to move beyond any challenges you are facing.

I am a licensed independent social worker located in Ohio. For the past ten years, my primary role has been a stay at home mom to my ten year old boy/girl twins, seven year old daughter and five year old son.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you and to the work that we are going to complete together. I began doing clinical work while living in Los Angeles. I pursued degrees in Psychology and Social Work while working as a therapist with children. Since moving to San Diego, I have enjoyed work as a therapist for all ages and as a school social worker, while also nurturing my own growing family. The work that I do has emerged from the love that I have for children, as well as for those who were children once. We all need to know that we have someone on our side that we can count on, someone who cares, and someone who allows us to feel heard. I cherish every opportunity to be that someone in the life of another. I will always tailor the work that we do to your specific needs and goals. I believe in a strengths-based, solution-focused model, and that you are the expert in your therapy and your progress. I also utilize research-based practices to help incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness practices into the work that we will engage in.
