About Me:

I am a Social Worker (LMSW), supervised by Mary Duffy. I have my undergraduate degree in early childhood and special education, with a masters in clinical Social Work. I work with children of all ages, adults and parents. Most of my clients will have behavioral challenges, trauma, anxiety, ADHD, or school related issues. With an education background, I had my registered behavioral technician license, experience in applied behavioral analysis, and Early Intervention. I received my social work degree from Baylor University. I have practiced in private practice, community practice, and in the medical setting. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Child Centered Play Therapy. My belief is that the therapeutic relationship is very important, and everyone deserves to be heard and have an opportunity at growth.

I'm from New Jersey, and now live in Georgetown with my husband, 3 dogs and 4 cats. I love to do aerial yoga, love music and am a big advocate in the school community. I love helping people achieve their goals and helping people grow.
