About Me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing individual therapy to children, adolescents and their families for more than 20 years.
My goal is to make my clients feel comfortable and engaged in a strong relationship. My approach towards therapy is interactive, flexible and non-judgmental. I begin where the client is by helping them learn and understand their emotions, feelings and behaviors in order to set realistic goals for happiness and success.
Many school-aged children have difficulties with ADHD, executive functioning and peer relationships. I am able to provide understanding to these behaviors, along with valuable tools and techniques for both children and their families, helping to eliminate power struggles within the home and school.
I focus on working together as a team, through caring, understanding, empathy and support. I connect and work with my clients to build a strong relationship that provides them with comfort and security and belief in themselves.
