Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 5 years of experience providing a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and safe to explore what's going on beneath the surface.

My approach to therapy

My approach blends practical tools with deeper healing work. I use evidence-based therapies including CBT and DBT to help you manage day-to-day stress, while also incorporating EMDR, ARC, and Theraplay informed techniques to support trauma processing, emotional regulation, and healthier relationships.

I also have specialized experience as an Adoption Support Specialist and support individuals and families navigating adoption-related challenges, attachment concerns, and family transitions.

What you can expect from me

Our work together will move at your pace. Some sessions may focus on building coping skills and gaining clarity, while others may gently explore deeper experiences that are impacting how you feel today. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more in control, and more like yourself again.
