I’m a clinical social worker who has been practicing psychotherapy for over 20 years, and I truly love what I do. I’ve seen many people move from feeling stressed, sad, and overwhelmed to feeling motivated, grounded, and joyful. I see how hard my clients are working, and it is an incredible privilege to accompany them as they create the lives they want to live.
This work happens in a few different ways. You might be someone who is interested in having open-ended conversations to talk about how things are going or to review behavior or relationship patterns you would like to change. Some people prefer to have a more focused approach, learning techniques to reduce anxiety, improve mood, or increase energy and address bothersome symptoms directly. Lots of people benefit from both! I’ve also spent many years working with primary care doctors and psychiatrists, and while I can’t give medical advice, I am very comfortable discussing medication. My style is grounded in warmth, humor, and curiosity. We will set goals together and work towards them collaboratively.
