Work HistoryI am a licensed clinical social worker with a profound commitment to the well-being of my clients. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience working in diverse environments, including inpatient psychiatric hospitals, intensive outpatient programs, rehabilitation hospitals and private practice settings. My expertise spans across different life stages, from adolescents to geriatric individuals. Building a strong therapeutic rapport is at the core of my practice. I employ Motivational Interviewing techniques to create a supportive and comfortable environment. Clients can expect a safe and non-judgmental space where they can openly process the challenges hindering their happiness. My treatment philosophy is to meet my clients where they are and use a strength-based approach for desired change. I am dedicated to addressing the emotional, physical, and behavioral factors that contribute to your current challenges. Together, we will explore your emotions, thoughts, and past experiences, identifying barriers and establishing realistic goals for meaningful change. What sets me apart is the collaborative nature of our therapeutic relationship. I see our journey together as a partnership, fostering shared decision-making. This inclusive process ensures that your values and individual circumstances play a pivotal role in shaping our approach while promoting personal growth.
