About
As a school social worker specializing in children and pre-adolescent youth, I create a safe environment using sports and arts/crafts, meeting clients where they are. Understanding the need for a secure outlet, I draw from my background as a foster care placement worker, addressing trauma, the foster care system, and contemporary stressors. My approach emphasizes empowering youth early on, fostering higher self-esteem and a positive outlook. As a professional experienced in addressing various emotions, genders, sexual identities, traumas, and family, peer, or school issues, I offer support in processing complex emotions and building essential skills. My approach emphasizes de-escalation, coping, strategy building, and goal-setting.
