I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been practicing since 2015. I have worked in a variety of settings, including community mental health, in-home and school-based services, as well as in a primary care wrap-around facility. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults (ages 5-30). I am trained in Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy, which has prepared me in treating Trauma, ADHD and Anger Management, Anxiety, Depression, and overall life adjustments.
Clients often ask me why I became a therapist. There was a time as a young adolescent when I had to go to therapy myself. I honestly believe my time in therapy helped change my viewpoint of myself, others, the world around me, and ultimately changed the path of life I had envisioned for myself.
My goal as a therapist is to help clients experience that, as well. Rapport building is very important to me, as I think success in therapy is a direct result of feeling heard, validated, and safe within the therapeutic relationship, which I believe results in long term feelings of support and change.
