Great to meet you!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, grief, or struggling with major life transitions, I’m here to provide the support you need. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate family dynamics, manage neurodivergence, and explore LGBTQIA+ and gender identity concerns. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can process your emotions, rebuild self-confidence, and work toward living a more balanced, fulfilling life.

Currently, I have no evening availability. I do have some virtual and in-person availability some mornings and afternoons.

My approach to therapy

As a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over a decade of experience in mental health care, I use trauma-informed, identity-affirming, and self-compassionate techniques to address a range of issues. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, family separations, or gender-related matters, I tailor our sessions to your unique needs. My progressive approach fosters healing, self-discovery, and growth in a non-judgmental environment.
