More about Valerie
- 28 years' experience

- LCSW
I have been a LCSW for 27 years and a professional social worker for nearly 40. I work with mature teens and adults of all ages including seniors to help you manage anxiety, relationship issues, improve communication and boundary skills, and to navigate narcissistic abuse in relationship and in recovery. I will meet you where you are with a non-judgmental, compassionate, strengths-based team approach using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy strategies that you can build on now and for a lifetime.
