Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of diverse experience spanning outpatient, school, crisis, and hospital settings. This background allows me to provide highly individualized, versatile care for individuals navigating depression, anxiety, grief, OCD, and ADHD. Together, we will work collaboratively in a safe, nonjudgmental space to build practical coping tools and foster lasting healing.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach centers on fostering a collaborative relationship where the client is honored as the absolute expert of their own life. I strive to empower clients to tap into the strengths and resilience that already exist within them. To support this growth, I integrate evidence-based tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). By blending these modalities, I help clients gain practical coping skills while remaining firmly in the driver's seat of their own healing journey.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, my primary focus is to get to know you as a whole person and begin building a safe, trusting connection. Together, we will explore your unique story, discuss what brings you to therapy, and identify your specific mental health goals. From there, we will collaboratively design a personalized roadmap tailored to your needs, ensuring you leave the very first session with a clear, empowering plan for our work ahead.
