Great to meet you!

As a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience in mental health therapy, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety and depression. My approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), emphasizing the importance of embracing a full range of emotions for a balanced and fulfilling life. I am passionate about guiding anxious perfectionists toward accepting themselves wholly, leveraging my expertise to foster growth and resilience.

My approach to therapy

My therapy approach, rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), emphasizes psychological flexibility and the importance of facing life's challenges without solely seeking happiness. I create a supportive environment for clients to openly explore their thoughts and feelings, using evidence-based practices tailored to individual needs. This fosters self-acceptance and action aligned with personal values.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to leave sessions with a deeper understanding of themselves and their emotions, equipped with practical strategies for navigating life's ups and downs. Through our work together, you'll learn to embrace imperfection, manage anxiety, and cultivate a sense of tragic optimism—finding meaning and growth in adversity. Our sessions aim to foster resilience, self-compassion, and the ability to live a fulfilling life aligned with your values, creating a foundation for lasting change.
