Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over four years of experience working with teens, adults, couples, and families. I help people navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, low self-worth, trauma, and relationship struggles.

My approach to therapy

Clients describe me as warm, down-to-earth, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported. I believe in meeting you where you are and walking with you toward healing and growth, at your pace, on your terms.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to feel truly heard and validated, but also gently challenged in ways that promote the growth they’ve been seeking. I believe meaningful change comes from both support and honesty, and I welcome open dialogue. You can challenge me too, this is a collaborative space where your voice matters.
