About me
Hi. I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over 35 years of practice in providing therapy.
My core belief is that we have an underlying wellness that can be obscured by the obstacles we encounter. Much like a piece of of silver, our value can be hidden under a layer of tarnish. But also like that piece of silver, our beauty and brilliance lies just underneath.
I have been trained in a variety of techniques including CBT, EMDR, and DBT. My approach is get to know a little so I can see understand both your strengths and your struggles l, so I can help you map out the route on your journey to wellness
