Details:

Practice Overview:

I have been a social worker for ten years and have a wide variety of experiences. I was with the veterans affairs for eight years and started my private practice in 2016. I also work in several Emergency Departments in Pierce County. A significant number of my clients and focuses in my current private practice are LGBTQIA+ individuals and older adults. I also work with individuals in the Kink and Polyamoury communities. My therapeutic orientation is a mix of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, CBT and Motivational Interviewing.

 

Supervisory Approach:

My goal in supervision is to help you become the best therapist that you can and to tailor it to your own professional needs. I often use Motivational interviewing when supervising to help identify goals and values. I find a mix of case consultation, reflective discussion and learning additional skills are the best mix for supervision. I have supervised individuals seeking their independent license and graduate students.
