Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) with a strong educational and professional background in behavioral health. My approach to therapy is also shaped by my own mental health journey, allowing me to connect with clients from a place of both professional expertise and genuine understanding. I support adults and adolescents navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a relatable, judgment-free space where you can heal, grow, and confidently pursue who you are becoming.

My approach to therapy

CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing. You set the goal and we light the way together.

What you can expect from me

The first session includes a psychosocial assessment that allows me to get a snapshot of your history and learn about your primary challenges. You’ll also have chance get to know me, my therapy style, and determine if I’m the therapist for you.
