MY EXPERIENCE
ABOUT ME
I am a clinical social worker who has been in licensed practice since 2006. I completed my undergraduate and graduate degrees in social work at the University of Texas and completed my PhD in social work at Smith College. I hold clinical licensure in CT, MA and NY. In addition to my private practice, I teach at the collegiate level, offer clinical supervision and consultation for pre and post graduates in social work and am active in research and writing in the social work field. I served in senior leadership roles in for-profit and non-profit community behavioral health settings in the state of Texas and Connecticut as well as a health care leadership roles in collegiate level education in New York state.
My practice history includes work in a variety of clinical settings, including inpatient, residential and outpatient care. I worked multiple populations throughout my years of clinical practice, including work with children, adolescents and adults, and provided clinical support for mental health and substance use treatment settings. I published journal articles pertaining to clinical supervision and higher education, and include supervision and consultation and integrated health care as current areas of research. I have also had experience in educational settings as both full and part time faculty, director of practicum education and supervised students in the social work field both academically and in community-based settings.
WHAT I DO
I primarily utilize a psychodynamic approach to inform my therapy practice, though I draw upon an array of therapeutic modalities to cater to the needs of each client served, including cognitive behavioral (CBT) approaches and skill sets associated with dialectic behavioral therapy (DBT). In addition to therapy practice, I served as a clinical instructor for the post-MSW fellowship program at Yale University, held Associate Professor and Adjunct Faculty appointments at Southern Connecticut State University and currently serve as part time faculty at Columbia University and Southern Connecticut State University.
