I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with children, teens, and young adults. I especially enjoy helping clients navigate anxiety, ADHD, big emotions, trauma, and life changes. My approach is warm, playful, and down-to-earth, and I often use creativity, movement, and practical coping skills to make therapy feel comfortable and engaging. I want therapy to be a space where you can show up as yourself, feel understood, and build skills that actually fit your life.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and flexible because no two people need the exact same thing. I draw from play therapy, CBT, DBT skills, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation, while adapting sessions to each client’s age, personality, and needs. With younger clients, therapy might include art, games, movement, or play, while teens and young adults may prefer a more conversational approach. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, feel more confident managing difficult emotions, and build skills they can actually use outside of therapy.
Our first session is all about getting comfortable, getting to know each other, and figuring out what you’d like to get out of therapy. There’s no pressure to share everything right away, and we’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Together, we’ll identify what’s been difficult, what’s already working, and a few goals we can begin working toward. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and with a clear idea of what our work together can look like.
