About
Tell us a little about your social work practice/services
I believe therapy is a partnership based on trust, empathy, and authenticity. I adopt a client-centered and strengths-based approach, and tailor my interventions to suit each person's unique needs and circumstances. I collaborate closely with clients to empower them on their path to emotional wellness, recovery, and healing from trauma. My 15 years of training and experience has instilled in me a deep understanding of the complexities of trauma, LGBTQ+ identity, and addiction. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their identities, heal from past experiences, and build resilience.
My expertise lies in trauma-informed care, addiction and recovery, and LGBTQ+ affirmative therapy. I am certified and/or trained in; Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC), LGBTQ+ CBT, and Gender Identity.
