I am a clinical social worker specializing in treating anxiety, panic disorder, grief, and trauma. I have several years of experience using interventions that are evidence-based to help others unlock their full potential and live their most fulfilled lives. I am passionate about empowering people to use their strengths to experience positive change.
I view therapy as a collaborative effort; we will work together as a team to make positive changes, build skills, improve self-awareness, and improve your overall quality of life. It’s important that we go at your pace and that you feel safe, respected, and heard throughout the therapy process. I take an inquisitive approach to all challenges. I ask a lot of questions to better understand your situation, and to help us explore alternative perspectives and responses.
During our first few sessions, we will focus on building trust, discussing your story, and identifying a goal for treatment. Based on that goal, we will create a plan for that is tailored to your specific needs. I enjoy using therapy modalities that are evidence-based to get results. Creating structure through goal setting, consistency, and out-of-session skill practice is important to the therapy process. However, I still aim to provide a relaxed approach that meets you where you are at.
