Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in grief and loss, chronic illness, anxiety, and end-of-life care. I provide a compassionate, supportive space where you can navigate life’s most challenging moments, process difficult emotions, and find ways to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that you don’t have to navigate difficult experiences alone. Whether you’re coping with the loss of a loved one, adjusting to a chronic or life-limiting illness, managing anxiety, or facing the uncertainty that comes with a major life transition, our work together will focus on helping you feel understood, strengthen your coping skills, and reconnect with what matters most to you.

What you can expect from me

I believe therapy is not about having all the answers or trying to fix every difficult feeling. It’s about making room for your experiences, discovering your strengths, and finding meaning, connection, and a sense of peace, even when life looks different than you expected. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you feel more supported, empowered, and equipped to navigate whatever comes next.
