More about Jean
- 24 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a social worker with 38 years of experience, 20+ years as a LCSW. As a LCSW I have worked in mental health settings, with cancer patients and their families and as a trauma social worker at a Level I Trauma Center. I am here to help you identify your life issues/stressors, and deal with your your associated thoughts and feelings .... My role is to help you express your feelings, identify related events and most importantly identify your strengths to work through them and to develop a plan to positively move forward. In doing this I am gentle and understanding yet at times can be direct if/as needed.
