Great to meet you!

Life can change in an instant. Whether you're grieving a loss, caring for a loved one, coping with the illness or loss of a beloved pet, navigating burnout, or facing a major life transition, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure of your next step. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Veterinary Social Worker, I help adults find clarity, resilience, and support during some of life's most challenging moments. My goal is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can process what you're carrying and begin moving forward in a way that feels meaningful and authentic to you.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy should be collaborative, personalized, and grounded in your unique experiences. I take a warm, empathetic approach while helping clients build practical tools to manage stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Together, we'll explore the challenges you're facing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop strategies that support healing, growth, and emotional well-being. I meet you where you are and tailor our work to your goals and needs.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin understanding what brought you to therapy. We'll talk about your current concerns, explore what support would look like for you, and discuss your goals moving forward. My hope is that you'll leave feeling heard, understood, and reassured that you don't have to navigate this chapter alone. Together, we'll begin building a plan that feels supportive, realistic, and aligned with what matters most to you.
