I have extensive knowledge and skills in both outpatient mental health and school clinical practices. Most recently, I was a program manager for Fairfax County Public Schools and lead 187 school social workers, six supervisors and several managers. I have received clinical training in DBT, solution-focused and CBT clinical modalities and I work with older children, adolescents, and families in my private practice. I am passionate about supporting individuals, youth and families' mental health and wellness through helping the person find their own solutions. I have worked within K-12 public education systems and have an understanding of students with learning disabilities, and ways to find student success within school divisions. My private practice focuses on how to support adolescents and families find solutions at school and at home. In our counseling sessions we will focus on developing your goals for healthy relationships and solutions for having peace and happiness in your life.
