I am collaborative, practical, and straightforward, and I want you to feel comfortable telling me when something is working and when it is not.

Welcome! Being human can be quite challenging at times. Seeking help takes courage, so congratulations on taking that step! As a licensed clinical social worker I find it a privilege to serve clients and to be trusted in deeply moving and meaningful conversations and provide compassionate support as well as challenge when called for. I believe in providing people with skills that they can utilize across their lifetime. .

I obtained my license in 2006 but had been providing qualified mental health support through non-profit agencies since 1992. I particularly enjoy working with people on relational issues, dynamics, and communications - skills all of us need and few of us were supported in obtaining.,
