About My Clients
I see clients virtually with Telehealth throughout California and Florida. Whether you're dealing with alcohol, drug abuse or other addictions, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem and self-worth, trauma or history of abuse, or any other issues or obstacles; I'll be there with you. I offer both traditional as well as Christian based counseling according to preference.
My Background and Approach
I am a licensed social worker having graduated from Fordham University with my Masters Degree in clinical social work. I have 31 years of experience working with people from all walks of life, people who have faced trials and tribulations. My therapy approach is direct and real. I work at the bottom line, breaking things down to the lowest common denominator for easy understanding and integration. The ways we learned in childhood are the same way we learn as adults - repetition, understanding, practice, and mastery. I use several therapeutic approaches in my work with clients, always monitoring for what approach works best for those I serve. My basic approach is cognitive behavioral. I also look to provide each client with psycho-educational experiences as well as "homework assignments" to assist in the treatment and recovery process. I'm direct, simple, and like to use humor - therapy shouldn't be painful.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in the resiliency of the human spirit, the uniqueness of each individual, and the absolute truth in the fact that there is always hope. With each session, my hope is that you will leave with less turmoil, fear, and hurt; and more understanding, motivation, and hope than you entered with.
