ABOUT ME
I'm a clinical social work therapist with 15 years of experience in areas including major life transitions, parental conflict with adult children, divorce/relationship decisions, loss/grief, adult survivors of sexual trauma, and elder issues. My therapeutic style is warm, yet direct.
I am committed to walking with you toward a clearer understanding of patternistic thoughts, emotional responses and family traumas. Together we'll explore practical coping skills to build resiliency and feel more connected to yourself.
