Great to meet you!

If you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or navigating a difficult life transition, therapy can provide a space to slow down and focus on what you need. I am an LCSW and CASAC who works with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, and substance use/recovery. I provide a compassionate space where you can feel heard and supported without judgment.

My approach to therapy

Therapy should be a space where you feel comfortable being honest and open about what you’re going through. My approach is warm, honest, and collaborative. Together, we’ll work on practical coping skills, understand what’s getting in your way, and identify meaningful changes that feel realistic for you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know each other and understanding what brought you to therapy. You’ll have space to talk openly about what’s been going on, what you’d like to change, and what you’re hoping for from therapy. You don’t need to have everything figured out when you start. We’ll take the time to understand what you need and work through it together.
