Great to meet you!

Welcome- I am so glad you are here! As a clinical social worker with a background in psychology, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals across the lifespan navigate life's challenges and work toward an improved quality of life. I would love to help you along your journey too! I practice with a mindful and holistic approach, ensuring you feel safe and supported along the way.

My approach to therapy

Everyone deserves an personalized approach to treatment. Once we decide to work together, we will act in partnership to ensure your individual goals feel comfortable. It is important to me that we communicate openly so that you feel "heard" in our therapeutic relationship. I’ll be there to listen to you, challenge you, and motivate you as we go along.

What you can expect from me

I always start with an intro session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We will work together to figure this out step by step. I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel safe sharing. We will work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
