Great to meet you!

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I am trained in several approaches that can create new insights about your feelings and behaviors. I'll create a tailored plan based on your needs that may include helping you clarify your desires, learn new tools for communication, and identify unhealthy patterns as they unfold. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, where you learn to replace unhealthy thoughts with constructive alternatives.

My approach to therapy

I believe in working collaboratively with my clients to create a treatment plan. Together we will explore how your feelings of anxiousness and perfectionism are present in your body. We will practice grounding and relaxing activities that will help you regulate your own emotions and have more control over your feelings.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to empower you to find the solutions within yourself, to become a better version of yourself, not just now but into the future. I have observed significant shifts with people I have worked with. I have witnessed them become more empowered and assertive. I am authentic and compassionate, and hope to provide an environment where you feel safe.
