Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialization in geriatrics. My background includes working with older adults and those with persistent mental illness. I have helped individuals navigate through grief, mental illness and various life transitions. I believe therapy should be collaborative and provide both an open and honest place that allows growth, skill development and tools that lead to a lasting change. No matter what brings someone to therapy, I provide a non-judgmental, empowering and empathetic experience.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is meeting each client where they are in their unique experiences. I utilize various therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a strength-based approach and a client centered approach. I do my best to treat each client as I would want to be treated. I work collaboratively to encourage, support and aid in navigating challenges and thought patterns that improve everyday life. My goal is to help you reach your full potential and get back to living your life in the healthiest way possible.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, my focus is getting to know you as a person. We will discuss your expectations for therapy. We will work through an assessment to identify problem areas and current stressors. Then we will clarify goals for therapy and the next step forward. My goal is to provide a welcoming environment where you can feel safe and vulnerable. I will provide a welcoming environment where you can be vulnerable and feel safe. I want each client to feel heard and confident in our work together.
