Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life stressors and create meaningful changes that align with their values.

My approach is both compassionate and structured. Therapy with me is not just about talking — it’s about understanding patterns, building emotional resilience, and creating sustainable change utilizing evidence-based techniques.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or simply ready for growth, we will work together to:

  • reduce anxiety and overthinking
  • process trauma safely
  • improve mood and emotional stability
  • strengthen self-worth and boundaries
  • reconnect with a sense of purpose.

My approach to therapy

My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered — while also helping you move forward with clarity and intention.

I draw from:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Trauma-informed care
  • Mindfulness-based techniques
  • Somatic awareness
  • Strengths-based therapy

Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented. You can expect:

  • practical tools you can use immediately
  • deeper insight into your thoughts and emotions
  • a balance of support and gentle challenge
  • steady progress at your own pace

What you can expect from me

Thank you for considering working with me.

The first session is designed to help us begin building a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. We will discuss concerns that brought you to therapy, your current symptoms and stressors, important life experiences, and the goals you would like to achieve.

Many people feel nervous before a first appointment. This is completely normal. My goal is to provide a supportive, collaborative, and nonjudgemental environment where you can speak openly and feel heard.

I look forward to meeting you and beginning this journey together.
