My goal is to provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-C), I bring more than six years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in child welfare. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals and families through difficult life transitions, trauma, grief, family conflict, anxiety, and uncertainty. My experience includes helping children and youth process worries and fears, providing psychoeducation to caregivers and families, connecting individuals with community resources, and supporting adults in accessing housing, employment, and substance use treatment services. These experiences have strengthened my ability to meet people where they are while recognizing the resilience they already possess.

I believe that every person has unique strengths, and I use a strengths-based, collaborative approach to help clients build on those strengths while working toward their goals.

I incorporate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Humanistic Therapy, tailoring treatment to each individual's needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, life stressors, relationship challenges, or simply looking for a safe place to process your experiences, I strive to create a supportive environment where you feel listened to, respected, and encouraged. Together, we can identify practical strategies, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward lasting growth and healing.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other. We'll discuss what brought you to therapy, your goals, and any questions you may have. My priority is creating a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, without pressure to share more than you're comfortable with.
