Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years experience in the field. I have a bachelors and masters in Social Work. My work has allowed me to support clients with a variety of mental health concerns including stress, anxiety, depression and women's health.

My approach to therapy

I strive to empower my clients to take an active role in their treatment. I use a CBT focused approach. I help clients explore their emotions, life events and goals in a supportive and collaborative environment.

What you can expect from me

As a LCSW, my goal is integrate resources and tools to help enhance treatment. I strive for clients to learn how to cope and manage their symptoms outside of therapy. It is crucial we set goals early on to ensure our sessions have purpose and intent.
