My Approach to Helping
Life in the 21st century is complex and can be filled with unexpected obstacles along the way. Given the ever-changing nature of this environment, our past experiences and education may leave us insufficiently prepared to strive towards our life goals. As a result, we may be left with feelings of anxiety, confusion, and frustration. If this sounds like your current situation, I want to acknowledge you for recognizing this and rallying the courage to seek help. This can often be a difficult first step, so I want to congratulate you on reaching this important milestone!
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my education highlighted the importance of assessing all of the biological, psychological, and social factors when trying to establish how to best support an individual to achieve their life goals. My professional experience in offering trauma-informed treatment and clinical case management to youth, families, and adults with severe mental health symptoms has only further reinforced this approach. For this reason, I make a commitment to each of the individuals with who I work to dedicate as much time as necessary to explore all of the potential roots and circumstances contributing to the current obstacles before working collaboratively with them to formulate sustainable ways to overcome them those obstacles. If this approach speaks to you, I look forward to working with you to build a life of greater contentment!
