Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to helping individuals navigate life's challenges, develop healthy coping skills, and achieve meaningful personal growth. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore their concerns, gain insight, and work toward lasting change.

My professional background includes experience in therapy, crisis intervention, case management, and advocacy. These experiences have strengthened my ability to support clients through difficult circumstances while helping them identify their strengths and build resilience.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process. My goal is to meet clients where they are, helping them develop practical tools to manage stress, improve relationships, and enhance their overall well-being.

My approach to therapy

I am a free spirit, I do not hide my flaws and I approach therapy in a way that is deeply personal for each client. Some of my modalities are listed below:

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Attachment-Based Therapy
  • Person-Centered Therapy
  • Strengths-Based Approaches
  • Solution-Focused Therapy
  • Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)

What you can expect from me

I like to describe the first session in two parts. Part One: Rules and regulations in which I do just that I discuss what the law says we have too. Part Two: Fireside chat: I describe it this way because I want my client's to be at ease and tell me their story in their own words so that I get to know not only who others think they are but how they see themselves.
