Great to meet you!

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years experience in the mental health field and I'm certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy +. I have spent my career helping individuals and families with trauma, child abuse, substance abuse, and domestic violence.

My approach to therapy

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I utilize Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you identify triggers, learn your warning signs, and then utilize coping skills.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to help improve your self esteem and change unwanted behaviors. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
