People who have anxiety, depression, who have experienced bullying or abuse at some time of their life, or have poor self esteem, find that my manner, personal style, and theoretical framework are very helpful. I have had 20 years of experience with adults, children and adolescents, individuals, families and families of divorce. Issues with children may include or be related to behavioral problems, bullying that they may have experienced, depression or anxiety.
I am a "cognitive behavioral therapist." I am also a Trauma Informed therapist. As is appropriate, I deal with current issues, behaviors and thoughts, or when it is relevant, such as with bullying or abuse, we will deal with issues from the past. I am trained in EMDR for trauma, and have been using it for 7 years. I also use TAPPING.
I really like working with people with anxiety, stress, and depression. I have had great success with people who have experienced trauma - from auto accidents, to war trauma, bullying, to verbal, physical and sexual abuse in the present or past. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Tapping, among other techniques.
I am a Masters level licensed clinical social worker. I also have an MBA and numerous certificates of qualification in clinical social work, such as ACSW, QCSW and DCSW
