Welcome to Your Journey

Are you feeling pulled in countless directions, struggling to find balance, or overwhelmed by the challenges of daily life? Whether you're navigating career demands, family dynamics, academic pressures, or the aftermath of trauma, you're not alone. Life's hurdles can affect anyone, and seeking support is a courageous step toward growth and healing.

About My Practice

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience helping teens and adults overcome life’s challenges. My passion lies in empowering clients to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma while fostering personal growth and resilience. I take a compassionate, individualized approach to therapy because I believe everyone’s journey is unique.

How We'll Work Together

I utilize evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), mindfulness-based approaches, and more to tailor treatment to your specific needs. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and develop practical strategies to help you thrive. My goal is not to "fix" you but to help you uncover your strengths and build the life you want.

Inside Our Sessions

Taking the Next Steps

Whether you're seeking significant changes or simply need someone to listen, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Let’s work together to navigate your challenges and create the life you deserve.

I look forward to meeting you!
