Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years dedicated to the mental health field. My practice is built on evidence-based approaches, and I'm skilled in various therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing.

My approach to therapy

Change can be exciting, but also complex with challenges, fears, and confusion. I've had the privilege of working with adults navigating a wide range of mental health concerns and life transitions, particularly anxiety and depression. My approach is deeply rooted in trauma-informed care, reflecting my belief that your past experiences don't define you. Instead, I aim to empower you to navigate your unique journey toward healing and personal growth. I recognize that each individual brings a unique story to therapy, and I tailor my methods to meet your specific needs, creating a safe space where you can comfortably explore your thoughts and emotions.

What you can expect from me

In my practice, collaboration is key. I actively involve my clients in their treatment planning, ensuring your voice is heard and valued every step of the way. I believe that a strong therapeutic alliance is crucial for successful outcomes, and I am committed to building trust and rapport with every person I work with.
