Great to meet you!

Navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, or relationship challenges can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to work through them alone. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 25 years of experience, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your concerns, reconnect with your values, and identify meaningful goals. Together, we’ll work toward building healthier patterns and finding a path forward that feels right for you.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), helping you understand how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. Together, we’ll identify unhelpful patterns, develop healthier ways of responding to challenges, and build practical skills to support your emotional well-being. My goal is to help you feel more equipped to navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore what you hope to achieve. I welcome your questions and want you to feel comfortable sharing your concerns and expectations. Together, we’ll identify your priorities and begin developing a clear, personalized plan for moving forward.
