Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with experience working with a variety of ages and populations. Through experience and education, I have developed an ever deepening interest in the intersection between our physical and emotional lives. As a social worker, I am interested in the impact of our environment and circumstances on our well being. I use this curiosity to help clients build self-reflection, self-compassion and tangible skills to manage their challenges. The clients I work best with are those who are invested in the process of therapy and are seeking a participatory approach.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, warm and empathic approach to therapy, integrating multiple approaches to empower and co-create the capacity for growth and change. Issues I have experience treating include: anxiety, ADHD; adjustment, stress management, people pleasing, parent support, maternal mental health, grief and loss, end of life, caregiver support, trauma, relationship concerns and OCD.

What you can expect from me

My goal is always to collaborate with clients to ensure we are focused on the things they want to change and address. Clients can expect me to check in often regarding clinical goals, to ask for feedback, to provide experiential exercises both in session and between them. Clients can expect to develop new skills, feel empowered and have the tools available to make the changes they want to see in their lives.
