Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s transitions with clarity, confidence, and care. My work is rooted in the belief that healing and growth happen when you feel seen, understood, and supported in a space that is both safe and collaborative. I've had the privilege of supporting individuals, couples, and families across a range of settings, including crisis intervention, community mental health, outpatient mental health, and private practice. My clinical training has equipped me to work with clients facing anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief, relationship challenges, and the complex intersection of identity and mental health.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and adaptable. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you, offer evidence-based tools, and help you build the insight and skills to meet your unique needs and goals.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is all about you, there's no pressure to have it all figured out before we meet. My goal is simply to create a space where you feel comfortable enough to show up exactly as you are. We’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, what you’ve been experiencing, and what you hope to gain from the process. You can expect a structured yet supportive environment. I hold space that is free of judgment. Goals are collaborative and will be refined over time, based on your progress and feedback.
