I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years post-graduate clinical experience. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults and families impacted by Depression, Anxiety, Learning Disabilities, Asperger’s Syndrome, Relationship Issues, School Problems, and major Life Transitions. In addition to providing outpatient counseling services through my private practice, I have worked in public, private and collaborative educational settings as a clinician, consultant, supervisor and trainer. I was the Clinical Director of a drama-based, social-skills program for 6- to 22-year-olds with social communication disorders.
I have presented at state and national conferences on the use of relationship-building strategies to teach social skills and how to diminish negative behaviors in the classroom by increasing social success. I have also developed Transitional Planning Programs for postsecondary life stages. I am a member of the National Association of Social Workers and the School Social Work Association of America.
