Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting adult children of aging parents who face the complexities of caregiving while balancing their own lives as employees, partners, and friends. I understand the emotional and practical challenges that arise as our parents age and may require increased support.

I am deeply passionate about helping those who are overwhelmed by the complexities of caregiving and life changes.

My approach to therapy

I provide a holistic approach that emphasizes active listening and addressing individual concerns, equipping clients with practical tools to enhance their well-being during these challenging times .In our initial sessions, you can expect to explore your reasons for seeking therapy, define what success looks like for you, and identify your personal goals. Together, we’ll work towards actionable strategies to help you manage stress and uncertainty effectively.

What you can expect from me

I am committed to guiding you through challenging times. I will help guide you to a place of greater clarity to move forward to a place of greater peace & wellbeing through honest, collaborative, & transparent dialogue. My goal is for you to see improvements in your overall wellbeing including your relationships, work life, and stress.
