About My Clients

My clients are addressing the desire for personal growth or seeking relief from anxiety, depression, grief, or anger. Perhaps you are navigating a life transition (change in relationship/family structure, employment status, relocation, milestones and aging), making adjustments to a new diagnosis, or learning to manage chronic conditions? I am ready to help you take those important new steps.

My Background and Approach

Using an integrative approach, I will empower you as you develop effective skills, find your own best path and achieve the changes and growth you hope for yourself. While I am skilled in a range of therapeutic techniques, I find most of my clients respond best to learning tools and techniques to better manage the challenges that interfere with their getting the most out of their day and overcome the obstacles they believe are interfering with progressing in the direction they choose for themselves. With a forward looking focus, my style is goal oriented and solution focused. I want my clients to better understand how to feel in control of their life experiences.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that benefiting from compassionate professional support at times of change is a valuable part of life’s journey. I also believe that therapy is resource you use to better understand your challenges, learn new tools, reinforce and implement change then move on to life on your own. I am also a Clinical Supervisor to support and strengthen skills of colleagues and I believe in mentoring new social workers to empower the next generation of care providers. My practice is culturally inclusive and LGBT+ affirming.
