Great to meet you!

I have been a licensed social worker for the past 11 years and have worked in a variety of practice settings including with individuals experiencing complex medical challenges and individuals experiencing systemic oppression and complex trauma.

My approach to therapy

I work collaboratively to learn what brings individuals to therapy and their strengths to overcome challenges. I provide non pathologizing interventions and am trained in DBT, EMDR, and ACT.

What you can expect from me

During the first session I would aim to get to know you, learn more what brings you to therapy, and learn about your strengths and the challenges you would like to address.
