Hey!
I look forward to meeting with you.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 6 years of clinical experience. I specialize in working with adolescents and much of my experience has been in working with individuals who have experienced trauma. I’m knowledgable of the variety of different ways that trauma can manifest within a person, and the unfortunate reality of this being misdiagnosed as ADHD, oppositional behaviors, etc. I’m also experienced in helping individuals who are experiencing depression and anxiety related symptoms.
I believe in using a variety of different therapeutic techniques tailored to each individual. I am certified to provide EMDR and TF-CBT, as well as a certified Daring Way Facilitator (Brené Brown’s shame resiliency training).
Hi!
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed School Social Worker with over six years of experience working with elementary- and middle school-aged youth. My experience as a school social worker has prepared me to treat a broad range of issues that may be interfering with a child’s ability to reach their full potential. I currently specialize in working with clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, ADHD, trauma, peer relationships, and oppositional behaviors. I also enjoy working with caregivers to help them understand their children’s feelings and behavior, and to teach them skills to help address their concerns.
When working with children, I use an integrative and client-focused approach that incorporates a variety of therapeutic modalities to best meet each child’s needs. I have two certified therapy dogs (Mel and Louis) who are an integral part of my practice, and I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Animal Assisted Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Play Therapy Techniques, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Approaches. If it sounds like I am a good fit for your family’s needs, please contact me. I would love to speak with you to discuss how I can address your concerns and help your child!
