Orientation &
Approach
| My approach
is growth oriented, building on an individual's strength, successes
and positive experiences, while acknowledging and addressing the
influence of the past. I believe that it is essential to develop a
supportive, caring, honest relationship based on respect in order to
assist an individual in meeting their self-defined goals. |

| I have been a
Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 1988. Much of my career has been
spent working for non-profit organizations providing counseling as
well as clinical supervision for interns and license-ready clinicians.
Over the years I have had the opportunity to work with a diverse group
of individuals from various cultures and backgrounds. |
