Life doesn't always hand you problems one at a time. I've been a social worker for nearly 30 years, working everywhere from the emergency department to my current work in hospice and end-of-life care. I've learned that people rarely come to us with just one thing going on. Anxiety may be tied to grief, relationships may be affected by a major transition, or stress may be connected to something much bigger. Whatever brings you in, I'll meet you where you are.
My approach is warm, practical, and deeply human. I believe you should be able to bring the complicated, messy parts of life into therapy without worrying that you'll be judged or put into a box. We'll work together to understand what's happening, identify what you need, and find realistic ways to move forward. I'll listen, support you, and challenge you when I believe it can help you grow.
You don't need to have your story perfectly organized before we meet. In our first session, we'll start wherever you are and focus on what's bringing you through the door now. We'll talk about what has been weighing on you, what you want to feel different, and what support might look like. My goal is for you to leave feeling understood and knowing you don't have to figure everything out alone.
