About My Clients
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing outpatient psychotherapy to adolescents and adults at the Hamden location of Connecticut Psychiatric & Wellness Center, LLC. My primary areas of training and experience include the treatment of anxiety, depressive, and obsessive compulsive and related disorders.
My Background and Approach
My goal as a therapist is to support my clients with building fulfilling and meaningful lives according to their personal values, even with the pain that inevitably comes with being human. I work collaboratively with clients to identify treatment goals and create individualized plans for meeting them. I draw from a variety of treatment approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy to teach skills for tolerating and coping adaptively with stressors and emotions. I am trained in and provide Exposure and Response Prevention for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As a social worker, I am committed to providing a supportive and affirming space for all clients to engage in therapy, with sensitivity to the role of identity, culture, and social/environmental factors in individuals' lives and the therapy process.
