I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with many years of experience in the mental health and addiction fields. I have worked with adults and adolescents dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, substance misuse, PTSD, bipolar I/II, OCD, ADHD and various personality disorders. I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which is especially effective for those who struggle with self-regulation and calming the central nervous system. In addition, I am a certified Clinical Trauma Provider and hold certification in Cognitive Behavior Therapy.

My philosophy is that anyone is capable of change, given the correct tools and support. Using Systems Theory and a Strengths-based approach, I assist each client to understand the origin of his/her behaviors and beliefs, and then focus on positivity, autonomy, and internal resourcefulness as a treatment modality. In addition, I believe that there is a strong mind-body connection, and that physical well-being can help enhance optimum mental health. I look forward to working with you!
