Great to meet you!

I am a clinical social worker who is passionate and dedicated about creating healing connections with my clients in order to foster positive change.

I have worked as a mental health counselor for the last 4 years. I am trained in Trauma-informed, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Polyvagal Therapy. I believe in utilizing my knowledge and skills to build a specific approach together with my clients, allowing them to direct and lead treatment.

My approach to therapy

I know that trauma and painful life experiences can often feel isolating and lonely. Trauma can often lead to people feeling that their struggles are unseen and unnoticed and my goal is to create a compassionate environment for my clients to provide space where they can express their authentic self. I believe my clients have innate knowledge on how to improve their life and I would like to work with them to help them access this knowledge and use it to reach full potential.

What you can expect from me

I know that mental well-being is possible for all, as long as they are provided with support and care to engage in improvement and growth. I have seen people thrive and improve their lives through painful and debilitating events and supported them on those journeys.
