Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 8 years experience working in Behavioral Health. I started working in substance use treatment in 2016 and graduated with a MSW from University of Buffalo in 2019. I am trained in EMDR and Inference Based CBT for OCD.

My approach to therapy

I have an eclectic style focusing on person centered and trauma informed care. My wish is for clients to leave sessions feeling heard, accepted, and empowered.

What you can expect from me

I strive to have a warm supportive environment in sessions with clients. Part of that comes from collaborative work between myself and clients. Receiving feedback from clients is always helpful so I can tailor my style to fit my clients' needs.
