Great to meet you!

I am a firm believer in the power of talk therapy. I love the connection we develop in therapy and helping my patients on their path towards finding a life worth living. I graduated in 2014 and currently hold the title of Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked in various areas, most notably Partial Hospitalization with adolescents. I became trained in DBT and utilize a solution focused approach. I support my clients through crisis and whatever life throws at them.

My approach to therapy

Overall I provide a warm, collaborative approach. Throughout each session I utilize various techniques from DBT and focus on helping my patients to find solutions to their problems, or at least how to manage their emotions if no solutions exist. I incorporate humor and life examples to help make the process easy to digest.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to feel supported, motivated, and prepared following a session with me. The goal is to help recognize both positives in our life as well as opportunities to improve, identify how we can work towards your goals and what to do until the next session to keep moving forward.
