I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California and I've been a social worker for over 25 years. I’ve worked with children and families, school-based, veterans and homeless populations and corrections. My approach is strength based as I always seek to find positive outcomes. I'm a dedicated and versatile social worker with years of hands-on experience in the field, primarily within a clinical setting. I've been credited with overseeing all aspects of clinical treatment, including the diagnosis, ongoing counseling, and social development of a diversified range of clientele. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is my most likely my go-to intervention but am comfortable in others such as mindfulness, motivational interviewing and multicultural therapy.
