Great to meet you!

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and understood from the beginning. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, and the impact of past experiences on present functioning. I bring both clinical skill and a grounded, real approach to sessions, helping clients feel safe while also supported in making meaningful progress.

My approach to therapy

My approach is strength-based and trauma-informed, with a focus on building self-awareness, strengthening emotional regulation, and developing practical tools for lasting change. I work collaboratively with clients to move from reactive patterns to more intentional and confident ways of responding, with an emphasis on boundaries, communication, and internal stability. I will meet you where you are, while also gently challenging patterns that may no longer serve you in order to support growth.

What you can expect from me

In your first session, you can expect a space to share what’s bringing you in, what you’d like to work toward, and what has or hasn’t worked for you in the past. We will begin identifying areas of focus and start building a plan that feels manageable and aligned with your goals. I value sessions that feel both supportive and productive, and I aim for all clients to leave with tangible steps or tools they can begin using right away.
