Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, couples, and family systems. I serve individuals and families seeking practical tools and compassionate support to navigate mental, emotional, and behavioral health challenges.

My approach to therapy

My approach is deeply collaborative: I endeavor to meet people exactly where they are and walk alongside them as they journey toward improved functioning and deeper insight. I am continually honored to bear witness as my clients reach these meaningful gains.

Beyond the therapy room, my ultimate goal is to reframe how mental health is viewed within minority cultures. By breaking down stigmas, I hope to make therapy an expected, natural standard of care when working to heal the whole person."

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a collaborative, pressure-free space designed to build trust and understand your unique goals. Together, we will outline your primary focus, identify immediate obstacles, and establish a flexible roadmap to track your progress.
