Great to meet you!

I am a dedicated and compassionate Licensed Independent Social Worker with Supervision Designation (LISW-S) and a Master of Public Policy and Management (MPPM), committed to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. With years of experience in mental health, I specialize in providing personalized, solution-focused therapy to help clients regain control and find balance. I create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, or stress, I offer practical tools and strategies to help you move forward. My approach is collaborative and empowering, ensuring you feel heard and supported every step of the way. Book a session with me today, and let's work together to create positive, lasting change in your life!

A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while incorporating a strength-based perspective to empower clients in their healing journey. I focus on identifying and reshaping negative thought patterns, building resilience, and fostering personal growth. Through structured worksheets and practical tools, I help clients develop actionable strategies to achieve their goals. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where clients feel empowered to take control of their mental well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to gain practical tools, deeper self-awareness, and actionable strategies to navigate life’s challenges. Through a supportive and goal-focused approach, they will build resilience, improve coping skills, and foster personal growth. Each session is designed to empower clients with clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of control over their well-being.
