Great to meet you!

I’m a licensed clinical social worker committed to supporting the growth and emotional well being of my clients. I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Social Work and have specialized training in cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution focused therapy and motivational interviewing. My practice focuses on helping individuals improve self esteem, heal through inner child work and develop healthier coping skills. I strive to create a warm, supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore their experiences, build resilience and move toward lasting personal growth.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive and client centered. I believe in giving my clients the autonomy to share at their own pace, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space for open communication. I specialize in helping individuals develop healthy coping skills to manage stress, regulate emotions and address problematic behaviors. Together, we work toward greater self-awareness, balance and personal growth.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a warm, welcoming and nonjudgmental environment where they feel heard, accepted and supported. During our first session, I focus on getting to know you, understanding your concerns, goals and what brings you to therapy. Together, we begin identifying areas for growth, such as building self-esteem, strengthening self-worth and developing healthy coping skills. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and hopeful as we start working toward positive change.
