Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience helping people succeed. I've spent the last 14 years doing indivdual therapy with adults, with a primary focus on trauma recovery, posttraumatic stress disorder, grief recovery, anxiety, and depression. My approach is strength-based and collaborative, helping clients recognize and build on the resilience and abilities they already possess. I believe therapy should feel supportive, empowering, and tailored to your unique needs and goals.

My approach to therapy

I use evidence-based approaches, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Clinical Hypnosis, and several other integrated treatment methods to support healing, emotional flexibility, and personal growth.

What you can expect from me

Whether you are coping with past trauma, life transitions, chronic stress, or just feeling stuck, I strive to create a safe space where meaningful change can occur. Reaching out for support can be difficult, but you do not have to navigate things alone. I would be honored to work alongside you as you move toward healing, clarity and a more fulfilling life.
