Approach
I find a student driven base of supervision to be most effective. I work with examination of the student’s current case load and desired career direction. Familiarity with the DSM 5 and confidence with diagnosis and management of care plans are essential. I emphasize appreciation of interdisciplinary teams and accurate case presentation to maximize benefits. I specialize in a number of areas. Abuse (verbal, physical and sexual), eating
disorders, anxiety, depression, and criminal behavior. I have worked in the Mental Health field with
adolescents and adults.
