Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
As a licensed social worker, my main objective is to focus on the strengths each person already has and the areas in which he or she wants to improve. If you are looking for extra support, you are the one setting goals and I will help you look at ways to achieve them. Each person is an individual who may be having a hard time with certain areas and not a patient who fits a "standard mold." We all struggle with difficulties in life, and now may be a time that you can use some help. Yet, talking to someone who has experience, education and a real desire to help people with their struggles, however "stupid" or "pointless" others may think them to be, can be helpful in improving one's perspective and skills to change ways which would increase someone's happiness. I have worked with adolescents, adults and older individuals struggling with mood difficulties, substance use issues, family problems, grief, poor self image, trauma, etc. I strongly believe in helping by listening to and motivating each person in a casual, relational manner.
