Great to meet you!

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to learn more about me. Whether you are seeking more joy in your life or want to experience something different, I am committed to supporting you. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9+ years of experience. My background includes serving diverse communities. I use a mix of practical tools to meet your needs including CBT, Mindfulness, Solution Focused, DBT, and EMDR to help you maximize your potential.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is person-centered. I will meet you where you are, and walk alongside you as we aim to meet your desired goal(s). I will allow you a non-judgmental space to share as I listen, a space to feel safe and grow, and I will invite you to consider other possibilities.

What you can expect from me

Attending sessions with me you can expect to walk away feeling refreshed, validated, empowered, and more in control of your life.
