I arrived at my current career as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist after several years as a middle school science teacher and guidance counselor. Through my teaching experience, I realized intellectual ability has less to do with learning than social and emotional strength. With this realization, I work with my clients, helping them achieve their goals by enhancing their social and emotional strengths. My philosophy is to start with my clients where they are on their path and guide them through any challenges and obstacles they encounter. We do this by focusing on skills-building, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), mindfulness and other techniques.
Training & Modalities Used
I am trained in Rapid Response Therapy (RRT). I use DBT, RRT, skills-building, stress reduction and mindfulness in my practice.
