Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
When working with me, you are the priority. I want you to have self-confidence, feel appreciated, feel like you matter, and know that your best is actually good enough. Anxiety gets in the way of feeling this way. As a seasoned clinical social worker, I’ve helped adults and adolescents apply tools to help them manage their anxiety and learn how to spend more time in a relaxed body opposed to a tense one.
In what ways does your personality influence your approach to therapy?
I am the type of person who like to listen and observe before I speak. I try to understand how people function based on the situation they are dealing with. Being patient with what is going on in a situation helps me to notice the various factors that may be influencing what someone is experiencing.
