I obtained my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2008 and became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in May of 2018. Prior to my licensure as a social worker, I worked for years as a nurse. I have many years of diverse experience in both professional capacities. I offer counseling services for adults living with illnesses or disabilities, people desiring personal growth, and people struggling with interpersonal problem and life challenges. My time as a nurse has influenced and improved my ability as a social worker because I am able to utilize my knowledge from both fields to best treat my patients. My tool kit includes an eclectic mix of evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing among others.  Most importantly I am passionate about helping others to help themselves.
