Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with work experience in schools and outpatient practice. I believe that we all have the ability to lead rich, beautiful lives, sometimes we just don't have the tools (yet) to make that happen. I work primarily with older children (especially middle schoolers), adolescents/teens, and young adults, though I and others in my practice also work with adults. I can help with many conditions, including ADHD, depression, and anxiety. I specialize in working with autistic clients and/or those in the LGBTQIA+ community. I am certified in the Safe & Sound Protocol (SSP), and I'm training in Somatic Experiencing. Both of these are trauma-informed, evidence-based interventions that help anxious or traumatized people learn or relearn how to quiet the worries and noise, and feel safe (again). I also utilize tools from CBT, mindfulness, and self-compassion, among others. I am happy to provide a free 30-minute consultation, so you can see if I might be the right fit for you or your child. Currently, I am only able to take clients onto my waitlist, but I am the clinical supervisor for some amazing therapists at our practice - so if you need help sooner than later, one of them might be a great fit.
