Trusting Transitions

SpecialtiesAre you experiencing a difficult time? Looking for support? My therapeutic approach is tailored to meet your individual needs, as you are the expert on your life! My goal is to partner with you as you navigate through this difficult time. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years experience working with children and families in various non-profit, school and county capacities. My private practice is dedicated to supporting school-age, teen and adult clients to make the most out of their resources and relationships. I provide psychotherapy services to those in need. Areas of my practice include: child abuse, neglect, support for transition and loss, and anxiety management. I am particularly attuned to stress in the parent-child relationship and very knowledgeable of the unique circumstance of children in the foster care system. At this time, I offer the option of sliding scale fees.
