Great to meet you!

Hi, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with children, youth and families. If you are experiencing a life transition (new job, new career, change of relationship status) I can help you through the process. Brief Solution Therapy techniques will help you reach your fullest potential while overcoming obstacles.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I help insightful teens and young adults who are battling lack of motivation and awareness, feeling stuck and fear of failing, by providing guidance and a safe place to process their dreams and goals so that they get a better understanding of their desires and feelings. They will feel empowered to see their strengths and find their true passion. They leave with a restored inner will, passion and courage to succeed with a strong vision created by them.

What you can expect from our first session

I offer support, guidance and a safe place to process your dream and goals in a way to help you overcome your fear. We will take our time to understand your desires then explore what is blocking you from reaching your goals. Once that is achieved we as a team will begin the step by step process to rebuild your inner will, passion and courage to succeed with a strong vision created by you.
