Hi, I am Anita and appreciate you stopping by to learn more about me. Both my undergraduate and graduate degrees are in social work. I have been practicing for 15 years in a variety of ways. I have spent 10 years working within short- and long-term addiction rehabilitation facilities, outpatient therapy in clinical setting with children and adults, therapist for Drug Court, children and families in school setting before entering private practice. I have enjoyed working with people from all different backgrounds and walks of life. I am very flexible and easy to communicate with whether it be verbal or written. My treatment approach is client centered and solution focused while utilizing motivational interviewing. I also utilized cognitive behavior techniques integrated with the others. If you think this would be a good fit for you, reach out to me. It doesn't hurt to try. I am looking forward to hearing from you!
