Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I bring experience working with individuals across the lifespan, children to adults. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in a variety of social work settings, which has given me a broad perspective on the many ways people grow, heal, and overcome challenges. While I’ve valued each of these roles, my greatest passion lies in the therapeutic setting—supporting clients in discovering their strengths and fostering meaningful change. My practice is grounded in evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and attachment-based interventions—all delivered through a trauma-informed lens. As a social worker, I am deeply committed to fostering a therapeutic environment that honors diversity, inclusion, and the unique experiences each client brings to the process.

My approach to therapy

I am a warm, understanding, and compassionate therapist dedicated to creating a strong therapeutic alliance with each of my clients. I believe that therapy works best as a collaborative process, where we work together as a team to explore challenges, build insight, and foster growth. As your advocate, my goal is to provide a supportive and empowering space where you feel heard, valued, and encouraged on your journey toward healing and change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is all about getting to know each other and making sure therapy feels like a good fit. I’ll take time to learn about you—your goals, challenges, and what brings you to therapy—while also sharing a bit about how I work. My focus is on building a genuine, comfortable connection where you feel heard and supported. Together, we’ll explore whether this feels like the right match and begin setting a foundation for your growth and healing.
