My Approach to Helping
I am licensed in Arizona with over 25 years working as a licensed clinical social worker providing individual therapy with adults (early 20s-70+) using a combination of therapy styles including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) since 2017. I focus on the here and now since the past cannot be changed to help clients learn to cope with and manage stress, anxiety, depression, life changes and transitions, grief and loss, family issues, and general mental health conditions with the use of coping skills and behavior changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, compassion, and humor when appropriate. I work with you to tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. My hours are Monday through Friday afternoons, but there is some flexibility. Taking the first step to making changes and seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage, and I am here to support you in that process. We can arrange a free 15-minute consultation to make sure we are a good fit.
