Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker, I have been working with adolescents, adults and families for 15 years. I graduated from Baldwin-Wallace University in 2009 with a B.S. in Psychology. I pursued my Masters of Social Science Administration (MSSA) from Case Western Reserve University, graduating in 2011, and I have worked in various settings including schools, mental health agencies, private practice, telehealth and online crisis support. My treatment approach is strength-based while other navigate anxious feelings, identify confusion, depression, and stress management.

My approach to therapy

I focus on client's strengths. I believe we all have strengths that can help us navigate the world and can empower ourselves to know that we can get through tough times.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect our first session to be casual, warm, and friendly. I want to hear all about you and how I can assist you on this journey called life!
