Personal Philosophy
“I have been a social worker since 1998. I work with all populations, but I am particularly interested in working with children, adolescents and women’s issues. I believe in self-determination and I feel it is crucial in empowering clients to be active participants in their own therapeutic process. Sessions focus on building an individual’s strength and capacity for change while alleviating the negative stressors and achieving peace, balance and growth. My approach reflects a strength based client-centered holistic perspective.”
