I would like to take the opportunity to introduce my practice at my new South Austin location.
I have over 30 years experience as a clinical social worker, child and family therapist in communities across the United States. These years of experience have given me a broad range of treatment perspectives and skills, along with a unique range of cultural familiarity and sensitivities.
I have evaluated and treated a diverse spectrum of client needs ranging from traditional mental health counseling, to trauma-informed therapy for children, youth, and their families - biological, foster, and adoptive. I also provide parent education and training in the field of behavior management for children and conflict resolution for families.
Over the years, I have developed an extensive network within the central and south Texas treatment communities: working with therapists, psychiatrists, and psychologists as well as foster care and adoption agencies, Dept of Family and Protective Services, private insurance, and EAP providers.
One of the most important aspects of my treatment philosophy is nurturing comfortable working relationships with both adults and children. These relationships allow for discussion of healthy, constructive problem solving strategies that are personalized for each individual or family.
