Hi! I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Northwest Indiana. I have 7 years of experience helping clients recover from grief and loss, loneliness, guilt, anxiety depression, unhealthy relationships or substance use. I believe with guidance, support and proper resources, clients can overcome their struggles, recover and get their life back. I enjoy watching my clients succeed and overcome challenges.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session is a get to know you session, my new client can expect introductions and questions about what the client wants from therapy and what their goals are for treatment, what do they hope to accomplish? What can I assist them with? Then I can build a plan to help them move forward.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I feel my strengths are that clients can tell I really care, I am a good listener. I am honest and up front with my clients when they need to hear the truth, but in a kind, gentle manner. As a social worker, I am very resourceful and look for ways to help clients find additional help.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with adults of any age. Widows who are lonely and depressed and need the confidence to socialize and enjoy life again. Anxious Perfectionists who want to learn to slow down and appreciate the little things Those who are ready to rebuild their life after struggling with active addiction Those who struggle with or are stuck in unhealthy relationships and have developed low self esteem
