Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin, providing telehealth therapy to adults across the state. I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, stress, depression, and trauma-related concerns.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, but you don't have to work through it alone. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and Interpersonal Therapy, I'll help you better understand what's keeping you stuck, strengthen your coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change so you can feel more like yourself again.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be tailored to you—not the other way around. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that fit your life. Whether you're navigating a difficult season or looking for long-term growth, I'll meet you with compassion, collaboration, and strategies that help you feel more confident in handling life's challenges.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is simply a conversation. I'll take time to understand what has been weighing on you, what's happening in your life right now, and what you'd like to be different. Together, we'll begin creating a plan that feels realistic, personalized, and focused on your goals. My hope is that you'll leave feeling heard, supported, and optimistic about what's ahead.
