Great to meet you!

With over 16 years of experience, my work is shaped not only by formal education but also my extensive, hands-on experience supporting individuals through a wide range of life challenges. I value both of these influences; however, I believe the most important expertise in the room is yours. Your strengths, lived experiences, and personal insight are central to the work we do together.

I hold a Doctorate in Counseling Education and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My professional background includes working with diverse populations, with a focus on areas such as trauma, life transitions, and relationships. I have experience supporting adolescents, adults, couples, and families, and I strive to create a space that is inclusive, respectful, and tailored to your unique needs.

My goal is to meet you where you are while offering guidance, practical tools, and perspective to support your growth.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy involves semi-structured sessions that focus on establishing clear goals while also allowing space to navigate life’s expected and unexpected twists and turns—supporting the whole person in an ever-evolving world.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an opportunity for us to see how well we work together and begin building a strong foundation for a respectful, collaborative approach toward achieving your goals.
