Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with advanced training and experience providing therapy to adults navigating stress, life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth. My professional background includes work in clinical, medical, and community-based settings, which allows me to approach care with both compassion and practical insight. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, and adjustment-related concerns, and I work with individuals seeking greater emotional balance, healthier boundaries, and improved coping skills. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and goal-oriented, blending evidence-based practices with a warm, supportive style. I serve adults from diverse backgrounds and strive to create a safe, affirming space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, strengths-based, and individualized. I work to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I blend evidence-based practices with practical, real-life strategies to help clients build insight, develop coping skills, and create meaningful change. While I honor each client’s pace, I also provide gentle guidance and accountability to support growth, healing, and long-term emotional well-being.

What you can expect from me

In the first session, clients can expect a welcoming and supportive space focused on understanding their concerns, goals, and what led them to seek therapy. We will review important background information, discuss current challenges, and begin identifying what you would like to work toward in therapy. I will also explain how therapy works, answer any questions, and collaborate with you on next steps. The first session is paced to your comfort level and is designed to help you feel heard, supported, and clear about the therapeutic process moving forward.
