Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience providing trauma-focused therapy to individuals . My work includes supporting adults, adolescents, and children as they navigate the effects of trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and other complex emotional experiences.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of presenting at numerous national conferences on topics ranging from dissociative disorders to human sex trafficking. These experiences have deepened my commitment to understanding the nuanced and layered ways trauma can shape a person’s sense of self, relationships, and overall well-being.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is a partnership grounded in trust, respect, and curiosity. Whether you are seeking support for trauma-related symptoms, struggling with identity or relationships, or simply feeling stuck, I am here to walk alongside you in the process of growth and change.

What you can expect from me

I understand that taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming. Reaching out for support often requires courage, especially when the pain is rooted in experiences that may be recent or long in the past. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space where we can work through any challenges you are facing.

Together, we will explore not only what has happened, but also how those experiences are impacting your life today—helping you move toward greater clarity, resilience, and healing.
