I’m an LCSW who genuinely cares about the people I work with. I take time to understand what you’re experiencing and what’s not working in your life right now. I’m warm and easy to talk to, and also direct when it’s helpful so you don’t feel stuck staying in the same patterns. My focus is helping you feel understood while also giving you tools you can use in your day-to-day life.
My work is trauma-informed and focused on how past experiences show up in your current thoughts, emotions, relationships, and self-esteem.
I integrate CBT, DBT, and CPT to help you regulate emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and build more stability in your daily life. We move at a pace that feels safe, while also staying focused on real, meaningful change.
Sessions are collaborative, grounded, and practical. You can expect both emotional support and skills you can start applying outside of therapy.
In our first session, we’ll talk about what brought you in and what’s been feeling most difficult lately. I’ll ask questions to understand your experiences and patterns, but there’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready for.
We’ll also start exploring what you want to get out of therapy and begin identifying goals so we can see what working together might look like and whether we feel like a good fit.
You’re welcome to ask me questions as well about how I work and what therapy will look like over time.
By the end of the session, you’ll have a clearer sense of direction and next steps, along with a supportive space where you feel heard and not judge
