Great to meet you!

Have you tried to feel better on your own and nothing seems to be working? If the answer is yes and you are willing to invest in yourself, I may be able to help. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am experienced working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. For over four and a half years, I have conducted Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) in a private practice adhering to Dr. Marsha Linehan protocol.

My approach to therapy

More often than not, I find individuals view change or a transition as uncomfortable and scary. My goal in treatment is for us to work through the fear and anxiety in order for you to understand yourself on a deeper level, emotionally and behaviorally. I use compassion and take a nonjudgmental stance while balancing change and acceptance by encouraging clients to gently work toward their own individual goals.

What you can expect from me

Our initial meeting is not just for me to assess and determine how to help you, it is also a way for you to get to know me and have an idea of what our work together will look like. If you are interested in scheduling an appointment or want to know more information, please feel free to reach out.
