I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with many years of experience in the Mental Health field. Prior to joining the Mindly Group, I provided therapeutic support to families of students attending the Wright School, a residential treatment center for children with behavioral and emotional challenges. I have worked with Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools as a mental health specialist providing individual therapy to elementary aged children. In my work with children I utilized dynamic brain-based learning principles and play to teach emotion regulation and adaptive coping skills. I also focused on incorporating families in treatment to enhance the child’s social, emotional, and academic functioning while building on the family’s strengths as a unit. I have provided individual therapy in an outpatient setting working with adolescents and adults. In that role I utilized an integrative model, based in science-based practices to help individuals cultivate a more meaningful life. My education, training and experience have made me especially attuned to the complex challenges faced by adults, youth and families. I appreciate working with all individuals and their unique concerns.
