Great to meet you!

If you're carrying the weight of depression, anxiety, or a past you haven't been able to fully

process, you don't have to figure it out alone. With more than five years as a Licensed Clinical

Social Worker, I work with adults and seniors who are ready to make sense of what they've been

through and start moving toward the life they want to build.

I have a particular passion for working with people navigating mood disorders like bipolar disorder,

trauma and PTSD, and the kind of emotional challenges men often face but rarely talk about. I also

work with couples who want to strengthen their connection before things fall apart.

My approach to therapy

My belief is simple: you are the expert in your own life. My job is to help you access what

you're already capable of. Depending on what brings you in, I draw from Internal Family Systems,

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused approaches. We'll

find what actually fits you. Whether you're working through trauma, navigating mood patterns, or

trying to understand what keeps showing up in your relationships, we'll move at your pace.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is yours to shape. I'll ask some questions to get a clear picture of what's

been going on and what you're hoping for from therapy. There's no pressure to have it all figured

out before we start. If you come in not knowing exactly what to work on, that's okay. We'll talk

through it and leave with a direction that makes sense for you.
