I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and have been working at the Walla Walla Clinic in Pediatrics since 2020. Prior to working here, I had four years experience in providing intensive, community-based mental health services with children and adolescents in Southern California.
My hope is that I can create a space in which difficult topics can be discussed with respect and without judgement. I have experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for anxiety and depression and Trauma-focused CBT for processing traumatic events. I also focus on building secure attachments between children and caretakers, and provide parenting support and guidance. I am just beginning the process to become a Ceritified Eating Disorder Specialist (CEDS).
