Anxiety, Depression, and Relationship Issues

Great to meet you!

As a licensed clinical social worker, I am dedicated to supporting adults (18+) through the complexities of life transitions, relationship dynamics, and emotional challenges. I work with individuals navigating issues such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and body image concerns, as well as the unique stressors that come with academic life in both undergraduate and graduate settings.

A bit about my approach to therapy

With a background in health care, I bring a compassionate understanding to those coping with grief, chronic illness, caregiving responsibilities, and life-changing diagnoses. I am familiar with the challenges faced by health care professionals, and I create a therapeutic space where clients can explore, heal, and build resilience.

What you can expect from our first session

I offer a client-centered, collaborative approach to treatment, helping individuals work toward their goals and experience meaningful personal growth
