Great to meet you!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s in Social Work and have specialized training in DBT, EMDR, and CBT. My work focuses on helping clients heal from trauma, depression, anxiety, and other life challenges. I’ve worked extensively with children, teens, and young adults, as well as individuals navigating difficult transitions or past experiences that continue to impact their well-being. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and culturally responsive by meeting each person where they are and helping them build the insight, balance, and skills needed to move forward with confidence.

My approach to therapy

My therapeutic approach combines evidence-based interventions with a trauma-informed perspective. I integrate different modalities to address emotional regulation, trauma recovery, and personal growth. Each session is guided by collaboration and compassion, ensuring treatment aligns with each client’s goals and pace.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll focus on understanding your goals, background, and what brings you to therapy. I’ll ask questions to get a clear sense of your experiences and needs while explaining how the therapy process works. This is a collaborative, no-pressure conversation designed to help you feel comfortable and supported from the start.
