Education
The University of Denver, Master of Social Work, Direct/Clinical Services, 1999 — The Master of Social Work (MSW) program at the University of Denver prioritized grassroots social work, ensuring that students acquired the fundamental skills to make a substantial impact on individuals, communities, systems, and policy. As a second-year student, I selected the pathway for direct services and benefited from specialized training provided by the Denver Family Institute. This comprehensive approach, encompassing classroom instruction, specialized training, and field education, equipped me with the necessary skills for a fulfilling career in working with individuals, families, communities, and organizations.
Work HistoryWhen your health changes, your whole life can change ~ including your relationships, your work, your future, and how you see yourself, With more than 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker across a variety of ages, settings, and levels of care, I have worked with individuals and families facing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. Over time, I have developed a particular interest in helping individuals navigate the psychological and emotional impact of chronic medical conditions and significant health changes. My work focuses on the often-overlooked experience of adapting to changes in identity, relationships, independence, work, and expectations for the future. I help individuals navigate grief, anxiety, identity, and life transitions so they can build a meaningful life within their new reality.
