Great to meet you!

I am an LCSW, LCADC, and CCS with over 10 years working in community based mental health and substance use treatment. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and supporting clients through major life transitions. My work is rooted in evidence-based practices and a compassionate, practical approach to helping clients build the skills they need to feel more confident, grounded, and empowered

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, evidence-based approach that helps clients build coping skills, understand unhelpful patterns, and make meaningful changes. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use, and I also focus on self-esteem, relationships, and life transitions. I integrate CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and relapse-prevention tools to support steady, practical progress

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a welcoming, safe, and non-judgmental space where they can speak openly without shame. I recognize the strength and courage it takes to reach out for help and to trust another person with your story. Every session is centered on compassion, respect, and collaboration, and I consider it an honor and a privilege to support you in your healing and growth.
