Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years experience helping people navigate life's challenges. As an empathetic and person-centered therapist, I work with adults living with anxiety, depression, substance use and trauma.

My approach to therapy

I believe each person has the capacity for meaningful change. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy while remaining flexible and responsive to your unique needs in the moment. Together, we combine thoughtful reflection with practical tools to support personal growth, resilience, and empowerment.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a chance for us to get to know one another and explore what brings you to therapy. From there, we will collaborate to define clear, meaningful goals that align with the changes you want to see in your life.
