I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting children and adolescents as they navigate depression, anxiety, and life’s challenges. With a background in both outpatient and inpatient care. I bring a compassionate, clinically grounded understanding of the challenges young people face today. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to build healthier coping skills and move forward with confidence.
My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client. I use a strengths-based and developmentally appropriate lens. I integrate evidence-based practices like CBT and mindfulness, along with play and art therapy techniques, to help clients understand their emotions, build coping skills, and improve self-esteem. I also involve families when appropriate to support growth beyond sessions, with the goal of helping clients feel empowered and confident in their daily lives
After your first therapy session, you can expect to leave with a clearer understanding of your goals and a sense of direction for our work together. I focus on creating a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to share openly at your own pace. Together, we’ll begin identifying your strengths, exploring challenges, and setting realistic, meaningful goals, while starting to build practical tools you can use in your everyday life.
