Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with adolescents through adults.

My approach to therapy

My philosophy is grounded in the belief that everyone has the capacity for change—though the process may take time and look different for each individual. I take an open-minded, collaborative approach to therapy, engaging clients with curiosity, honesty, and direct feedback to support meaningful growth and self-discovery.

What you can expect from me

During our initial session, we will complete a comprehensive evaluation, also known as a biopsychosocial assessment. This process allows for open dialogue about your past experiences, what brought you to therapy, and the goals or areas you would like to focus on during our sessions. Screening tools may also be used to support a more accurate diagnosis and to guide effective treatment planning.
