I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker-Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) working with individuals, couples and families. I specialize in Family Systems Therapy which means I am particularly interested in many circumstances that surround the problem that brings you in to see me. I think within a session or two you will know if this approach is helpful to you.
In addition to private practice I have enjoyed teaching Family Systems Theory at several local universities in the Kansas City area: University of Missouri, Kansas City and Ottawa University.
Personally, I use making pottery and ceramics to calm, center and replenish myself. I invite you to visit my pottery website at www.moonriverpottery.com
