Great to meet you!

I believe therapy should be a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, without judgment or pressure. My goal is to create a warm and supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and respected as we work together toward the changes that matter most to you.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my professional background includes community mental health, child welfare, and veteran services. I have had the privilege of working with people from diverse backgrounds, life experiences, and circumstances, including children and families, adults, veterans, and older adults. These experiences have deepened my understanding of how early experiences, family relationships, and life circumstances can continue to shape us throughout adulthood.

I have extensive experience supporting veterans and their families with trauma and PTSD, military sexual trauma (MST), readjustment concerns, grief and bereavement, relationship and family challenges, and major life transitions. My current practice focuses primarily on adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, stress, relationship concerns, and life transitions. For clients who desire it, I also welcome the integration of Christian faith and spirituality into therapy in a way that respects your individual beliefs, values, and goals.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is warm, empowering, collaborative, and solution-oriented. I believe therapy should offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while developing practical tools to navigate life’s challenges.

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused, strengths-based, client-centered, and trauma-informed approaches, as well as the Community Resiliency Model (CRM). I tailor our work to your individual needs and goals. Together, we may explore patterns contributing to distress, develop healthier coping strategies, build on your existing strengths, and identify practical steps toward meaningful change.

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel heard, respected, and actively involved in the process. My role is to work alongside you as you gain insight, strengthen your resilience, and move toward the changes that matter most to you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity for me to learn more about you, what brings you to therapy, and what you hope to gain from our work together. We'll explore what you're currently experiencing, relevant parts of your history, your strengths, and the areas where you would like support.

You don't need to have everything figured out before beginning therapy. We'll work together to identify what feels most important to you and develop goals that are meaningful and realistic. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and sharing at a pace that feels right for you.

My goal is to create a supportive environment where you feel heard and understood while we begin developing a path forward that reflects your individual needs and goals.
