As a licensed clinical social worker and therapist, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals cope with a variety of mental health challenges. With many years of experience in the field, I have developed a skill set that allows me to assist clients in achieving their goals and improving their sense of well-being. I have had the opportunity to work with clients from all walks of life. From individuals struggling with anxiety or depression to those dealing with relationship issues or trauma, I provide a safe and supportive space where clients can explore their emotions and work towards healing. I have a lot of experience working with children and adolescents which I really enjoy and have a soft spot for.
My approach to therapy uses a variety of techniques and modalities to individualize treatment to each client’s unique needs. Whether it’s supportive therapy, mindfulness-based therapy or other forms of psychotherapy, I work collaboratively with each client to develop a plan that will help achieve his or her goals and be their best self. In addition to my work as a therapist, I strive to continue my ongoing professional development by staying current with the latest research and best practices in the field. Helping others is something I am very passionate about and I wholeheartedly believe that every person has the potential to achieve great things.
I am an LCSW who has experience as a crisis counselor, mental health therapist, group therapist, and director of outpatient programs. I work holistically with clients to on achieve overall wellness each domain of wellness. I have experience working with a variety of different diagnoses. I have worked with clients across the life span.
I am dedicated to providing a customized approach that is considerate of a client’s circumstances. I help to build a client’s confidence and capacity for managing and mitigating their mental health. Together we create a plan based on the client’s priorities using a strengths-based approach. Clients learn new interventions and techniques and how to incorporate them into every day life.
I use S.M.A.R.T. Goals:
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Relevant
Timely.
During therapy, we will discuss progress toward goals as well as any areas where I can provide support to the client. Progress is progress, no matter how small or big!
I serve as Chief Medical Officer at Relief Mental Health. I am a board-certified neuropsychiatrist, quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) diplomat, and an accomplished, executive-level medical administrator.
I am passionate, caring, and dedicated to the study of brain sciences. I draw on my knowledge and experience to find the best solution for each of my patients.
I specialize in the treatment of depression, OCD, and other mental health conditions. Using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in conjunction with state-of-the-art diagnostics, psychedelic therapy (SPRAVATO® esketamine nasal spray or IV ketamine), and other collaborative interventions, I have a track record of outstanding results.
I develop and apply a proprietary method of medication selection, and strongly believe that Deep TMS technology is highly effective in the treatment of psychiatric conditions, especially in cases where traditional methods have failed or proved an inadequate level of relief.
