Great to meet you!

As a clinical social worker, I believe that healing begins with genuine connection. I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their stories, build resilience, and discover new possibilities for growth and change. My approach is collaborative and compassionate—grounded in the belief that every person has the inner strength to move forward, even in the face of pain or uncertainty.

My approach to therapy

With a foundation in evidence-based practices and a deep respect for each client’s lived experience, I work alongside individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Together, we uncover patterns, identify strengths, and move toward meaningful outcomes that reflect your values and hopes.

Whether you're seeking clarity, healing, or transformation, I’m here to walk with you—at your pace, on your terms. Together we will find new outcomes; new ways to think, new ways to feel, new ways to act; essentially a new way to live!

Therapy with me is...

  • Open and connected
  • Partnering
  • Focused on new outcomes
  • Skills building

Therapy with me is not...

  • One-sided
  • Tense
  • Stressful
  • Rigid

What you can expect from me

When you step into my Zoom link, you will be greeted with a warm and welcoming smile to ease the nervousness of starting on your healing journey. We will start where you are and partner together to produce those new outcomes you desire in your life. We will have an, “Yes I can mindset”.

We will start with an Intake where you share everything about you and the outcomes you seek. We will partner together to create goals to reach those outcomes. Then the change begins, starting with learning relaxation and grounding techniques to support you as you unpack experiences, emotions, your gains and your losses. We will use evidence-based theories to help you move forward towards your desired outcomes.

Clients describe me as being inviting, fun, authentic, and growth oriented.
