Great to meet you!

Hello! I'm Licensed Clinical Social worker, as well as a Licensed Addiction Counselor. I have experience working with individuals as well as families, and people ages 15-60. I specialize in working with Anxiety, Depression, Women's Issues, LBGTQ Related Issues, Self-Harm and Suicidal Ideation. I look forward to meeting you!

My approach to therapy

In working with clients, I take a holistic approach that is centered around the idea that the body and mind need to be in sync for life to feel in balance. I use a combination of DBT, CBT, and ACT to help you find a way to achieve the life and counseling goals you have set for yourself.

What you can expect from me

I create an environment for each of my clients that is warm, welcoming and safe to explore tough emotions and life circumstances. With an open and inquisitive mind, I will ask questions and seek to understand how I can best support you through your journey.
