I have practiced as a clinical therapist for over 20 years. I am a committed and compassionate professional who practices from a strength-based and client-centered perspective. My experiences come from many different settings, including inpatient psychiatric hospitals, chemical dependency programs, EAP, community mental health agencies, and private practice. I obtained my master's in social work at Columbia University in 1994. My areas of focus include Anxiety, Depression, mood disorders, Grief/Loss, and Substance abuse/Addiction. Work with CBT & DBT skills training to promote change.
