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 at the University of Texas and completed my PhD in Social Work at Smith College.  I currently have a private practice office in New Haven CT and also provide online therapy.  I hold clinical licensure in CT, MA and NY. In addition to my private practice, I have taught at the collegiate level, offer clinical supervision and consultation and am active in research and writing in the social work field.  I have also 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 leadership role in graduate level education.

I have a history of working in a variety of clinical settings, including inpatient, residential and outpatient care.  I have worked with  a variety of populations, including children, adolescents and adults, and have offered clinical support for mental health and substance use treatment. I have published journal articles pertaining to clinical supervision and include supervision and consultation as current  areas of study. I have also had experience in educational settings as an adjunct faculty member, director of field education and have 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 serve as a clinical instructor  for the post-MSW fellowship program at Yale University, have held Associate Professor and Adjunct Faculty appointments at Southern Connecticut State University and have served as adjunct faculty at Smith College and Columbia University. I most recently served as the Director of Field Education at Fordham University.
