Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Board-Certified Patient Advocate specializing in psychotherapy. I offer psychosocial support and psychoeducation to help clients navigate their mental health challenges.

Currently, I provide individual and couples therapy through a secure virtual platform. My areas of expertise include PTSD, depression, social anxiety, trauma, bipolar disorder, and various anxiety disorders.

Additionally, I offer coaching to help individuals build confidence, improve self-esteem and self-image, and develop effective coping and communication skills.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach includes evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-focused therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and other integrative techniques.

I also provide crisis intervention and de-escalation support to ensure safety and stability.

Additionally, I conduct capacity assessments and guardianship evaluations as part of my clinical services.

What you can expect from me

In my practice, I use a variety of therapeutic techniques to help individuals manage stress and improve their relationships.

In our first session, we’ll explore what’s been challenging for you and identify the best approaches to support your well-being.

Together, we’ll work on practical strategies to reduce stress and enhance your connections, whether in personal, family, or other types of relationships. My goal is to help you find effective ways to feel more balanced and confident in your interactions.
