Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience as a therapist. boundaries, and step back from the caretaker role when it has become draining. I bring honesty and compassion to every session, and I will always respect your time and your story. I do not have all the answers, but I will show up ready to work alongside you.

My approach to therapy

You may feel weighed down by anxiety, overwhelmed by responsibility, or drained from always caring for others. I support adults who want to manage worry, set healthier boundaries, and step out of caretaker roles that no longer feel sustainable. Therapy can offer a warm, nonjudgmental space to understand your patterns, reconnect with your strengths, and create meaningful change.

. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. Using cognitive behavioral therapy and strengths-based work, we’ll explore anxious thoughts, practice new skills, and build tools for everyday situations.

What you can expect from me

I know that talking to a therapist for the first time can feel awkward or intimidating. My goal is to take the pressure off. We will spend the session getting to know each other. I will ask about what brought you in, what your typical week looks like, and what you have already tried on your own. You are welcome to share as much or as little as feels comfortable. There is no expectation to dive into heavy things right away. By the end of our time together, we will talk about what you hope to gain from therapy and map out a loose direction for our sessions. I will also give you space to ask me anything about how I work. Most people tell me they walk out feeling a bit lighter just from having said everything out loud in a space that feels judgment free.
