Overview
I have over 6 years of experience working as a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked closely in applying clinical psychotherapy modalities to address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and grief and loss, as well as assist in third age/retirement life and career development. In my work with clients we explore underlying issues impacting the prevalence of maladaptive behaviors that give rise to anxiety and depression. Focus is geared towards relieving and managing symptoms, as well as creating and implementing a plan of action towards identified goals. Furthermore, our therapy sessions work to improve communication and interpersonal skills within the therapeutic alliance. In addition, I have experience in working with couples. Focus is geared towards improving communication skills and building trust and understanding between couples. My foundational principals include the belief that we are all a product of our experiences, however, have the capacity to unlearn maladaptive behaviors that resulted from these experiences and can relearn healthy conducive behaviors to succeed and thrive in building a better quality of life.
Sessions are available in person at partner facilities and via secure telehealth, so care fits the realities of each patient's day.
