Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist. I have worked for 20 years in mental health, addiction, and disability services with people of all ages in home, community, inpatient, and office settings. Clients contact me with a variety of needs. Some have never been in therapy or have had negative experiences with therapists, whom they feel didn't adequately address their needs. I strive to provide a safe atmosphere of empathy and compassion where you can finally feel accepted and heard. I offer tools, coping skills, and resources to help you tackle current challenges and meet your goals. View 121 Photos I currently work with adults and couples. I use evidence-based practices and think outside the box to tailor care to meet your specific needs/desires. Do you feel alone, isolated, stuck, or overwhelmed when trying to create change in your life? I provide an atmosphere of unconditional support to help you harness tools and your strengths to achieve change. I am body/sex positive, an advocate for social justice, and love working with clients from diverse backgrounds. I provide an affirming space for clients who are LGBTQIA+, autistic, or neurodivergent, have experienced religious trauma, chronic/terminal health conditions, caregiving for others, loss in their life, or are seeking acknowledgment and acceptance.
