Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience serving adults, couples and children. I have a particular passion for working with both adults and children (ages 8 and up) struggling with anxiety/anxiety disorders. Utilizing a cognitive-behavioral approach to therapy, I help my clients develop calming and coping skills while also changing the negative thought processes that keep them stuck in unproductive patterns of behavior. I also have expertise in working with couples experiencing complex relationship issues including infidelity, blended/step-family concerns, parenting issues as well as life transition and loss issues. With the recognition that reciprocal patterns of negative behavior are damaging to relationships, I assist couples in building self-awareness while also developing concrete skills in communication, "fair fighting" and in promoting and sustaining intimacy.
