About My Practice

I’ve been a social worker for over 30 years.  I have a small private practice where I focus on short term, action oriented work.  I believe in working holistically with a person, and that in order to have good mental health, one must strive to have balance in their lives.  The process of psychotherapy is working towards finding and removing the blocks to your fulfillment as an individual.  I am also available for professional consultation, clinical supervision, as well as for educational workshops and in-services.

I have extensive experience working with adults who have problems with mental illness, addiction, depression, anxiety and trauma. Over the years I have used photography; music and other creative processes to help individuals overcome blocks to their growth.
