A referral may be needed for this provider.
Professional interests:
- Mood, anxiety and adjustment disorders
- Cognitive behavioral therapy
I believe in a client-centered approach. I meet you where you are in your recovery and join with you using my skills and experience to assist you to accomplish your identified treatment goals.
I have grown up with a strong belief in the importance of service to others. As I progressed in my career working in various social service roles, it became apparent the significant impact mental health can have on your ability to achieve your goals. I felt pursuing a career in social work as Clinical Social Worker offered the best way for me to make a positive impact in the lives of the people I work with.
I believe that each person is the best expert on their own life experiences when defining their goals for recovery.
I have set a personal goal of making sure I do something active every day. Whether it’s going to the gym, running, biking, or walking, I try and make sure to move around. I find it’s a great stress reliever and helps me focus.
