I have spent the last 28 years working in the social services field working specializing in working with individuals with various disabilities and needs. I have worked as a medical case manager, residential services director of or individuals with developmental disorder, HIV/Aids Case Manager, autism spectrum services and intensive outpatient services. I along with my wife were Treatment Foster Parent for over 12 years caring for dozens of special/behavioral needs children. These experiences have built a foundation for me in advocacy and understanding the difficulty many face and the practical aspects of client and family needs. I work with individuals and families in therapy and believe that the home environment plays a primary role in therapy. I specialize in evidence-based CBT and TFCBT therapy so we can measure your actual progress.
