Details of Practice and Areas of Specialty: I work with Children, Adolescents and Family. I work with substance/alcohol and Eating Disorders. I have extensive training in all Adoption issues both as a therapist and that of a mother who has adopted 6 children. My journey began in 1969 when I adopted my first child. Back then there were no resources and very little information on attachment issues, PTSD, or how abuse, neglect and abandonment played a role. Likewise there was little information on grief and loss, fetal alcohol syndrome or failure to thrive. There were certainly no post adoption services and no way to gain information on the child as the records were sealed. I was a single mother with 8 children (2 birth children and 6 adopted) who owned her own business. In 1986 I returned to school studying Social Work. I ultimately graduated with my M.S.W. in 1993 and then my L.C.S.W. in 1997. Then in 2001 along with my partner I opened my own agency. My experience and expertise spans all sides of Adoption issues: Parent, Agency, and Welfare. DBT, CBT, FAMILY SYSTEMS, ART THERAPY, PLAY THERAPY. I also deal with Foods impact on mental health and behavior.
