Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience. I work primarily with teens, young adults and women who are struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, low self-esteem, grief, or feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns. Seeking support can be difficult, and I recognize the courage it takes to begin therapy.

My approach to therapy

My approach is person-centered and holistic, meaning I meet you where you are and tailor therapy to your individual needs and goals. I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches and focus on helping clients better understand themselves, develop healthier coping skills, improve relationships, and build confidence in navigating life’s challenges.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin understanding what brings you to therapy. We’ll discuss your current concerns, relevant life experiences, and what you hope to achieve through counseling. My goal is to provide a warm, welcoming environment where you feel comfortable sharing openly. Together, we’ll identify goals and create a plan that feels meaningful and realistic for you.
