Great to meet you!

I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in areas such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, women's issues and co-occurring disorders. I provide my clients with a safe and collaborative space, while working towards achieving each individual's treatment goals.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is eclectic since one size does not fit all. I utilize client centered and evidenced based modalities such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Motivational Interviewing all from a multicultural perspective.

I am passionate about helping people strengthen their abilities to manage life's challenges and am committed to providing high quality care to individuals and couples. I provide a judgment free environment where you can learn about yourself and work towards your goals.
