I am super excited to be able to offer guidance and support to fellow Social Workers on their learning/growth journey. It is absolutely an honor and a privilege to be able to give back to my profession in this incredibly valuable way!!
I am a LCSW-S who earned both my Bachelors of Social Work and my Masters of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas at Austin. Supporting others is truly a calling for me. I have more than 20 years of experience working with children, tweens/teens, adults, and families in various settings including child welfare, foster care and adoptions, hospital (perinatal and emergency room), maternity home, residential treatment, schools, group practice, and private practice (currently).
I use an evidence-based, relationship-rich, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and family systems-oriented approach. I will provide you with a nurturing, attuned, non-judgmental, safe space to foster exploration/learning, growth, and build trust and confidence in your skills. I have training in various modalities including CBT, TF-CBT, Theraplay, Child-Centered Play Therapy, TBRI, EMDR, and Emotional Transformation Therapy (in process currently); however, I firmly believe that what to do is not nearly as important as how to be . . . building a relational foundation is the most important piece.
Please, reach out to me if you think I may be a good fit in joining/supporting you in your journey. I would be more than happy to chat and/or answer any questions you may have :) * I offer individual supervision, both in-person and virtually * My supervision rate is $80 per hour
