I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has experience working with clients from all walks of life. I have been so fortunate to treat a diversity of populations, from community mental health in NYC and West Oakland, to managed care in large hospitals and the VA, to the tech and business industries of San Francisco and beyond.
Via all of this experience, there is one thing I know for sure; no one is impervious to the impacts of trauma, addiction and grief. We all have moments in time where we need some guidance and help. I bring years of experience coupled with evidenced based therapy interventions to help people get back to the place where life is interesting again.
I achieved my Masters in Social Work from Smith College School for Social Work and have been a director at a trauma focused Intensive Outpatient Program treating pychological and addictive disorders for the past 4 years, and have been treating clients for the past 15 years.
I fully believe in being a warm, down to earth, and active partner in the therapeutic relationship.
