I am a social worker in Florida with 6 years experience. I have worked with crisis and suicide prevention for many years. My specialties include substance abuse counseling, and grief and loss counseling. I find that I am able to understand my clients in ways that others cannot. With a technique that incorporates finding one's own Inner Strength and uncovering things that they do not know about themselves. It is important to realize the positive qualities of not only yourself but your life in general and use that as the basis to better yourself. It is time to make the decision to be better.

"Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio; I am excited you are here. A little about me, I am an independently licensed counselor with supervisor designation, LPCC-S, in the State of Ohio. I have over 20 years experience working with individuals, children, families and couples. I have worked in a number of diverse settings including psychiatric hospitals, schools, private practice as well as community mental health centers. My most recent adventure was serving as a Clinical Supervisor in a small behavioral health clinic in Juneau, Alaska. I truly feel that it is a privilege to be able to help people who are endeavoring to overcome personal obstacles. I have worked with many people who struggle with depression and anxiety, relationship and parenting problems, addiction and trauma. I believe that it takes courage to ask for help, and to be open to receiving it. I want my clients to feel safe and understood, and do my best to help my clients learn the skills they need to overcome the challenges they are facing. Life can be hard, and I believe we all benefit from the extra support that counseling can bring. None of us are perfect ( I know I'm not!) and we all make mistakes, but we cannot let our mistakes define us. I believe that life's challenges can make us stronger, and help us get to know our resilient selves. I think you'll find me easy to work with, completely non-judgmental and sometimes even fun. I look forward to working with you!"

Hello, I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervisory Designation (LISW-S). I have over 10 yrs of direct mental health experience. I am grounded in a commitment to social justice, personal well-being, and the development of the whole person. I focus on depression, anxiety, stress, life changes and parenting (especially for those who care for individuals w/special needs). Typical areas of concern are emotional well-being, managing stress, relationship or family issues, identifying/exploring patterns and making desired changes. I work with clients through the process of becoming healthy individuals, offering them a place to receive both nurture and compassionate challenge. My goals are to assist individuals in the areas of 1) Self-Empowerment and Acceptance, 2) Decision-making, 3) Developing and implementing coping skills, 4) Identifying and using internal and external resources and 5) Improved positive well-being. I work with individuals (straight or LGBTQIA). I am highly competent in a variety of cultures, religions, and social and interpersonal issues. My practice core values are: 1) Autonomy - Self-determination; behavior an individual stands behind and, if reflective, would endorse and value. Autonomy is the process of doing something by one’s own decision or initiative. 2) Competence - Providing high quality, professional counseling services provided by a qualified LISW-S. 3) Effectiveness - A commitment to on-going education. It is knowing, understanding and implementing the best treatment practices available, practicing within my areas of expertise, and referring clients to other resources whenever it is in their best interest. 4) Integrity - Upholding a professional ethic regarding respect, privacy and confidentiality. 5) Respect & Diversity - Recognizing all aspects of our humanity and honor that all of these aspects remain salient to every life. This includes age, physical abilities and cognitive talents, socioeconomic status, political viewpoints, religious/spiritual and/or philosophical beliefs, sexuality, gender, racial/ethnic identities, and other unique characteristics. I offer a safe and non-judgmental place, and I would be happy to work with you.
