Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes real change comes from feeling both supported and gently challenged. I'm warm and direct — I'll meet you where you are, but I won't let you stay stuck. I'm also passionate about working with first responders and law enforcement, and I bring a genuine understanding of the culture and pressures that come with those roles. Outside the office, you'll find me hiking or camping — I try to practice what I preach when it comes to finding balance.

My approach to therapy

My style is active and collaborative — therapy with me isn't passive. I'll engage with you, ask the hard questions, and help you connect the dots between your thoughts, behaviors, and patterns. I draw on multiple frameworks depending on what you need, always keeping your goals and values at the center of our work. My clients often describe me as someone who is both easy to talk to and willing to push when it matters.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is about getting to know each other — I want to understand what's bringing you in, what's felt hard, and what you're hoping life looks like on the other side of this work. There's no pressure to have it all figured out. We'll start to map out a direction together, at a pace that feels manageable and right for you.
