Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I have been passionately working in the mental health field for 7 years. I have worked in community settings as well as hospitals and residential treatment centers, so I have an ability to engage with a full spectrum of clients. I epescially focus on working with individuals who are going through life transitions and identity shifts, helping then to feel empowered in their journey towards an evolved sense of self.

My approach to therapy

My approach is very empowering in nature. I believe you are the expert of your life experiences, and it is my role to help you redefine your narrative to better suit who you are and who you are becoming. I will create a safe space where you feel comfortbable to engage in a gentle challenge to examine things in different ways. I am compassionate, open-minded and inquisitive in my approach. I am willing to ask the tough questions and help you figure out how to reconnect with your core values when you are feeling lost or stuck.

What you can expect from me

I aim to have a collaborative approach with you as we go on this jounrey together. My goal is to center what you idenitfy as important and create goals that support you in your radical change.
