My Approach to Helping
I am a licensed clinical social worker working with people 18 and older. I have a bachelor’s in social work from the University of Michigan-Flint and a Master’s in social work from Arizona State University. I have experience working in several hospital settings. I have obtained experience with grief through the hospice setting. I have also worked in an inpatient and outpatient setting with mental health. I utilize evidence-based therapies, including Emotional Regulation Therapy (ERT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Mindfulness. I use Strengths Perspective and Choice Theory while using evidence-based therapies. I help clients work on addressing the emotional mind while identifying any physical issues that are present and keeping in mind that grief comes in many forms. The hope is that by using different tools in session, clients will be able to address the many facets of life. ~ Anxiety ~ Bipolar ~ Chronic health medical issues ~ GriefBereavement ~ Mood Disorders ~ Panic disorder ~ Depression ~ Personality disorders ~ PTSD ~ Self-esteem ~ Social anxiety ~ Stress ~ Substance use ~ Trauma ~ Workplace issues Treatment modalities: ~ CBT ~ Couples therapy ~ DBT ~ Group therapy ~ Mindfulness
