Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a doctorate degree, I am interested in helping you move forward in life. It’s wonderful that you’ve accomplished the first step of reaching out to improve your well-being. Let’s explore the next steps together.

In addition, I do specialize in supporting adults navigating chronic conditions, grief and bereavement, and end-of-life issues.

My approach to therapy

My approach is inquisitive, open-minded, and creative, while also being direct and practical—I believe in exploring the deeper meaning of your experiences while providing concrete tools and strategies that make a real difference in daily life.

I draw from Humanistic, Narrative, Strength-Based, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to create a therapeutic space that honors your unique story and strengths. Whether you're adjusting to a chronic illness, processing loss, or facing end-of-life concerns, I work collaboratively with you to find meaning, build resilience, and navigate these profound life transitions with clarity and compassion.

What you can expect from me

My style is straightforward and curious—I ask thoughtful questions, remain open to where your journey takes us, and bring creative problem-solving to the challenges you're facing. Clients appreciate that I don't shy away from difficult conversations while maintaining a warm, non-judgmental presence.
