Vince Edwards is an ethnically-sensitive social worker that has worked with children and families since 1993. He is interested in ensuring racial, gender, and aging equality in his practice and within the larger, global community. He is particularly sensitive to the needs and pressures facing school-aged children (ages 8 and up), especially adolescent males. He has experience working with anxiety-based disorders, Asperger’s Syndrome, and victims and perpetrators of sexual abuse.
Vince utilizes a strengths-based model of social work and employs multiple therapeutic techniques to enable change within his clients. He believes personal choices, above all else, determine our own level of happiness.
