Great to meet you!

If you've been feeling lost or confused about what's next in your life, please know that you are not alone. My goal is to make you feel supported. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults through a variety of challenges. I understand that everyone’s experiences are different, and I take the time to get to know each person as an individual. I’m passionate about helping people feel understood and supported while navigating life’s ups and downs. My goal is for clients to feel that they have someone in their corner as they work toward the life they want.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution-focused. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can be open and honest without judgment. I use evidence-based approaches such as CBT to help you better understand your thoughts and emotions, develop practical coping skills, and work toward meaningful change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and for you to share what brings you to therapy. We’ll talk about your goals, current challenges, and what you hope to get out of therapy. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable, heard, and supported from the start.
