Great to meet you!

Hi! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 10 years of experience working in the mental health field. I utilize cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and mindfulness techniques to support my clients with achieving their treatment goals.

My approach to therapy

My role as a therapist is to create a safe place for you to be understood and accepted. Therapy can be a powerful place to create meaning, connection, growth and change. I work from a trauma-informed, social justice and LGBTQIA+ affirming lens. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, work stress, personal or professional identity, relationship problems, or life stage transitions, I am here to support you.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to gain insights into their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and safe space for clients to work toward their therapeutic goals.
