Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Social Worker with a deep commitment to helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief, and find safety and strength within themselves. My clinical focus is on trauma recovery, including PTSD and complex PTSD, as well as those experiencing loss and grief (both loss of a loved one and also disenfranchised grief).

Over the years, I’ve pursued extensive training in trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and grief processing.

My approach to therapy

My approach is exploratory, supportive, and rooted in education and empowerment.

My work is grounded in trauma-informed care, and I draw from multiple therapeutic frameworks including CBT, DBT, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), depending on each client’s unique needs.

Psychoeducation is also a key part of my work — especially around the nervous system and how trauma can shape our thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming space where we’ll begin getting to know each other.

We’ll go at your pace — whether that means diving into what brought you to therapy, or simply getting comfortable talking through what support might look like for you. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your history, current challenges, and what you’re hoping to work on. You’re always in control of what you share and when.

This session is also a chance for you to get a feel for my style and ask any questions you may have about the therapy process. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, respected, and just a little more hopeful — knowing that you don’t have to navigate things alone anymore.
