Therapist Overview
I am a Social Worker engaged in Private Practice since 1980. I have a wealth of practical information and useful coping strategies to assist clients with life’s challenges. I work with Individuals, Couples, and Families to foster healing and behavior change during troubled times. Together we develop a road-map that safely guides to new and more effective life choices. My style is directive yet comforting and always goal-oriented. I am insightful, perceptive, supportive and non-judgmental with a belief in positive behavioral change. To accomplish change we must listen carefully and speak our truths to achieve understanding and acceptance. I provide an atmosphere where trust exists and vulnerability can lead to change. I have always been a very intuitive person. But due to a Near Death Experience, I have become very tuned in to the energy flow and spiritual light around us. This lends another perspective and dimension to my work with the healing process.
