Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly 20 years of experience supporting individuals, families, older adults, and medically complex patients across a wide range of healthcare and community settings. My approach is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and practicality—I help clients navigate life’s challenges by focusing on what matters most to them.

My background spans emergency departments, primary care clinics, long‐term care facilities, hospice, crisis response, and private practice. This breadth allows me to offer therapy that is warm, grounded, and deeply informed by real‐world experience.

My approach to therapy

Clients often describe me as:

  • A good listener
  • Calm and steady, especially during difficult or emotional moments
  • Solution‐focused, helping people take practical steps forward
  • Non‐judgmental and supportive, offering a safe place to talk openly
  • Collaborative, working with clients to identify goals that feel meaningful and achievable
  • Clear and direct, with communication that is honest but always respectful

I value meeting clients where they are emotionally, medically, and socially and tailoring therapy to their unique needs.

My background makes me especially well‐suited to support:

  • Adults navigating stress, anxiety, depression, or life transitions
  • Older adults and seniors
  • Caregivers
  • Individuals coping with medical challenges or chronic illness
  • People adjusting to major changes in health, independence, or identity
  • Couples and families seeking improved communication or support
  • Clients needing brief, focused counseling in integrated care settings

What you can expect from me

“In our first session, we’ll keep things conversational and low‐pressure. I’ll invite you to share what brings you in, what’s been on your mind, and what you’re hoping to understand or change. As we talk, I may ask questions to get a clearer picture of your experiences and how I can best support you.

My style is caring but direct—and I’m a big believer in using humor when it fits. Sometimes a little laughter really is medicine for the soul.”
