Biography
Green is a Wayne State University graduate and has been teaching cognitive behavioral therapy in the M.S.W. program since 2007. She also maintains a private practice providing primarily home-based services to individuals and families, both self-referred and court-ordered. Before opening her own practice, Green spent a number of years as an outpatient therapist with Catholic Social Services of Oakland County.
Green has extensive experience working with children and adolescents in diverse settings. She runs workshops on treating children and adolescents with mental health issues and has worked as a board social worker reviewing treatment provision standards for compliance in an aquatic rehabilitation facility.
