Founder of Raising the Barr Therapy: Groups Healing Together

As a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 30 years of experience, I have had the privilege of helping individuals navigate some of life’s most challenging moments. Throughout my career, I have had the blessing of helping many people of all ages through individual and group psychotherapy.  Group therapy  has always been my passion, believing deeply in the transformative power of shared healing. My approach integrates a combination of evidence-based practices with a deep respect for the unique experiences of each individual, always fostering a safe and supportive environment where growth, connection, and empowerment can flourish.

In founding Raising the Barr Therapy: Groups Healing Together, my goal is to offer structured, meaningful group therapy that addresses life's many challenges—whether navigating grief, parenting struggles, mental health, or aging. I am passionate about creating a space where individuals can connect, heal, and grow together, knowing that through shared experiences, we emerge stronger as a community.

I am committed to helping individuals find their path to healing, resilience, and personal transformation. With a focus on collaboration, empowerment, and holistic support, my commitment is to guide each group member on their unique journey while fostering a sense of connection, understanding, and hope.
