I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I graduated from Humboldt State University with a masters degree in social work in 2017. I have provided clinical services for people learning to cope with co-occurring disorders (mental health and substance use or medical diagnoses), substance use, anger management, relationship issues, and childhood/adult trauma related issues. Prior to being licensed as a social worker, I worked in Northern California communities providing mental health and substance use services since 2012.
Diversity is important to me and I have specific training to provide competent services for people with varying cultural, personal orientations and values. I am committed to being an ally to any member of the community and supporting their growth and development.
My professional orientation and foundation is rooted in solutions focused therapy and logos therapy (Logos is Greek for meaning). I also utilize a number of mindfulness techniques, cognitive behavioral therapy techniques and rational emotive techniques to support you in achieving your treatment goals. If you have any questions regarding these therapies or techniques please feel free to ask me directly.
