Great to meet you!

As a clinical social worker and a graduate of the University at Buffalo School of Social Work, I bring experience in the areas of addiction, co-occurring disorders, and general mental health. My areas of expertise include working with adult individuals on issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship and family issues, and adverse childhood experiences.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My practice approach is straightforward: challenges are a normal part of life. I prioritize a person-centered approach to meet your individual needs. I have a strong background in fostering healthy relationships, effective communication, rapport building, exploring self-identity, and providing career encouragement.

What you can expect from our first session

In our work together, you can expect warmth, genuine connection, humor, and honest communication. My aim is to empower you, provide constructive challenges, and create a safe space for you to be authentically yourself. Welcome.
