Peer Consultation
I enjoy consulting with my peers when there is a difficult case. We can work together to conceptualize the case, brainstorm ideas, problem solve barriers, resource allocation, address therapeutic dynamics at play, and review what has been attempted thus far. This may include creative interventions, rapport building, treatment planning/direction, and resource securing.

Clinical Supervision
One of my favorite parts of being a therapist is helping other therapists on their journey. I know what it’s like to have supervision that was lacking, to put it nicely, and I have also been lucky enough to experience supervision that was life and practice changing. Assisting others in gaining insights and ideas about how to help the most challenging clientele is rewarding and a learning experience on my end as well. I have a straightforward approach to help with clients, in a way that integrates professional development, skill building, and self care. I provide an inclusive space for you to learn and grow as an clinician to help you overcome obstacles so you can be the therapist that aligns with who you are. I will assist in meeting licensure requirements as the foundation for a successful career as a mental health professional.

Therapist Development
Many therapists feel intimidated by the process and need more support as they are progressing in the field. I can help you discover and develop your professional identity, find your niche and specialties, develop your therapeutic style, overcome imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and self doubt, create healthy work habits. I offer coaching for therapists or soon-to-be therapists, graduate students, and interns. Customized to individual needs.

Private Practice Support
It is easy to feel overwhelmed and need some guidance when deciding to engage in private practice. Having been through it myself I can help you with identifying steps to begin your own private practice, offer guidance on important decisions (taking insurance for example), different dynamics to consider (including the financial aspect), setting up your business for success (policies, procedures, etc.), and work flow.

Writing and Research
I enjoy writing in a professional capacity. I am devoted to ‘macro’ level work, such as research and writing, to advocate for those I serve; this fulfills a special part of my social worker heart. I have been able to secure many grants through my writing as well as collaborate with my peers in different writings to assist other practitioners utilize different theoretical concepts.
