Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master’s degree in Social Work, earned in 2014, and have been licensed as an LCSW since 2018. I have extensive experience working with older adults and the geriatric population, providing compassionate, individualized support to clients as they navigate the challenges and transitions that can come with aging.

My clinical experience includes working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and significant life transitions. I believe that each person has unique strengths, experiences, and needs, and I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and respected.

My goal is to meet clients where they are, recognize their strengths, and work collaboratively with them to improve their emotional well-being and quality of life. I believe that seeking support is a sign of strength, and I am committed to providing compassionate care throughout each client's journey.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach is tailored to each individual. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Grief Counseling, and Supportive Therapy. I incorporate practical coping strategies and therapeutic techniques to help clients better understand their emotions, manage stress, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward meaningful goals.

My goal is to meet clients where they are, recognize their strengths, and work collaboratively with them to improve their emotional well-being and quality of life.
