Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Master and Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience helping people through some of life's hardest moments. I work with individuals, families, and groups, and I have specialized training in trauma, eating disorders, and sexual health concerns. I'm also passionate about the bigger picture — how the world around us affects our mental health — and I bring that perspective into my work. I'm currently accepting new clients.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based techniques, meaning approaches that research has shown to actually work. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns; Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which builds skills for managing difficult emotions; and EMDR, a specialized method for processing trauma. My care is always centered around you — your goals, your pace, and what feels right for your life.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is really about getting to know each other. I'll ask about what brought you in, what you're hoping to get out of therapy, and a little about your background. There's no pressure to share everything right away — we'll go at whatever pace feels comfortable. My goal is for you to leave that first session feeling heard and hopeful about the work ahead.
