Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience. Born and raised outside of Chicago, I have lived in Denver since 2003. I obtained a B.S. in Human Development and Family Studies at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign and my Master of Social Work from the University of Denver. I earned a post-Masters certification in Marriage and Family Therapy.

My approach to therapy

While I have served various patients throughout my career, my true passion lies in working with both adults and older adults who are navigating relationships, life transitions, stressors, medical issues, and grief. I believes that each one of us is first and foremost a human being, trying to maneuver life and all of its challenges with the skills and resources we were taught and have learned.

What you can expect from me

It is never too late to make positive changes in our lives and address those things which no longer serve us. Therapy can be quite uncomfortable and challenging, but it can also provide relief and hope. I sincerely look forward to the opportunity to walk empathetically alongside you as you embark on your individualized journey.
