Over the course of nearly two decades, my practical expertise as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker has been dedicated to fostering close connections with adolescents, young adults, and their families across various settings. Throughout my extensive career, I have served as a school-based social worker and therapist, specializing in providing assistance to individuals grappling with emotional and executive functioning challenges. Additionally, I have gained prior experience in residential and day treatment programs focused on eating disorders. These diverse roles have afforded me a unique perspective on the academic and social-emotional requirements of adolescents and young adults, enabling me to grasp the complexities associated with a wide array of mental health issues.
With a specialization in anxiety, depression, stress, executive functioning, and relationship challenges, I have assisted many individuals and families through difficult life transitions, crisis situations, and ultimately helping them achieve overall happiness and well-being. My focus is on exploring and identifying the specific skills required to assist my clients in developing effective coping strategies, boosting self-esteem, managing stress, and navigating the complexities of interpersonal dynamics. By tailoring my approach to each individual's unique needs, I strive to empower my clients to overcome challenges, build resilience, and experience positive growth in their lives.
In 2002, I completed my Master's degree in Social Work at the University of Missouri - Columbia and received my LCSW in 2004. Throughout my professional journey, I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of clients who faced various challenges, such as anxiety, learning disabilities, and social-emotional difficulties. I also have experience with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) and support plans.
I am excited to continue supporting individuals in their journey towards improved well-being and personal growth.
