I have been a social worker for over 25 years, working with adults, children and families in a variety of programs and modalities to help people determine how they can best engage in the process of making change a reality. I deeply respect the courage that it takes for anyone to engage in the therapeutic process and work to understand each client's individual needs throughout that process. Furthermore, I welcome clients from all backgrounds and strive to recognize and address issues pertaining to race, ethnicity, culture, religion, gender and sexual orientation as they arise in and affect the lives of my clients.
