Great to meet you!

I have been a Social Worker for over 15 years, and my favorite thing is helping people heal from trauma and feel less overwhelmed by life. My background is in geriatric Social Work, but I have worked with individuals in their 20s to overcome their anxiety and/or depression, and now they live very full and rich lives. I truly believe in the power of one: we are all interconnected, and everyone healing/growing/living as their truest self makes the world a better place.

My approach to therapy

I use an eclectic therapeutic approach and utilize various trainings to use the one that I feel is best for you. I will often combine a few of them. We all see color differently, so everyone has different therapeutic needs, and not all work for everyone. My goal is to provide a therapeutic framework that is Evidenced-Based that is best for you.

What you can expect from me

Trust is the key to any relationship. Our first session focuses on building rapport and trust. I want to start learning about you and why you decided on therapy. If you have had a therapist before, what did you like, and what did you not like? And to see if we would be a good fit.
