Great to meet you!

As a clinical social worker, I take a holistic, person-in-environment approach to therapy. I recognize that emotional well-being is shaped not only by internal experiences but also by relationships, life circumstances, and the broader systems around us. Drawing on evidence-based practices and a strengths-based perspective, I partner with clients to understand challenges in context, build resilience, and create meaningful, sustainable change.

My approach to therapy

I approach therapy with the understanding that you are more than your challenges. Your well-being is shaped by both your inner experiences and the relationships, life circumstances, and systems around you. I partner with you in a collaborative, strengths-based way—drawing on evidence-based tools—to help you gain clarity, build resilience, and create meaningful change at a pace that feels right for you.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, you can expect a safe, non-judgmental space where we take time to get to know each other. We’ll explore what’s bringing you to therapy, the relationships and life circumstances that shape your experience, and what you’d like to change or understand more deeply. Together we’ll begin identifying your strengths and clarifying meaningful goals. My aim is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and with a clearer sense of how we can move forward at a pace that feels right for you.
