I am a self employed private practitioner who teaches and advises at one of the nation's top social work schools and has an expertise in program development and implementation of evidence based, trauma informed practice in community based settings. Drawing on two decades of experience as a therapist and program manager in a wide variety of settings (school, clinic, wilderness, crisis team, hospital, residential, community / home based, evidence based treatment etc) with youth and families from diverse backgrounds, I tailor my treatment to the unique strengths and needs of each youth and family I meet, with an eye towards demonstrated and measurable outcomes.
