Great to meet you!

Hi. I look forward to meeting you. In my practice, I strive to provide an inviting space for exploration, offering a genuine, non-judgmental lens from which to guide you through life’s personal and relational challenges. I have behavioral health counseling experience working with adults- young, middle-aged and elderly- in both medical clinics and community environments for a variety of psychosocial needs and I appreciate the incorporation of your personal beliefs and traditions into attaining and maintaining your goals.

My approach to therapy

I employ a trauma-informed, cognitive-based, eclectic style of talk therapy, adjusting modalities to fit your needs. I am a clinical social worker and will work with you to find your own strengths-based solutions to problems that are realistic and sustainable. I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy via Veterans Affairs and utilize its structured approach to challenge and modify unhelpful beliefs. I also specialize in substance use disorders and deeply understand how these struggles often upset the most carefully laid plans.

What you can expect from me

I want to talk to you about you. Who you are now and who you would like to be. Where you are now, and where you would like to go. I hold safety and trust in the highest esteem and in our first session we’ll establish the therapeutic groundwork that informs what we’ll do together. Whatever your interest, motivation or therapy experience, I’m excited to get started.
