Great to meet you!

Welcome. Reaching out for support can be difficult, especially when you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, or the weight of experiences that continue to affect your daily life. With seven years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults who are seeking healing, personal growth, and meaningful change. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, substance use concerns, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, stress, grief and loss, anger management challenges, and other mood-related difficulties. Many of the people I work with feel exhausted from trying to manage everything on their own or are ready to break free from patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we'll create a supportive and collaborative space where you can gain insight, strengthen resilience, and move toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is strengths based, person centered, and collaborative. I believe clients are the experts in their own lives, and I work alongside them to create meaningful goals that support healing and growth. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing, Strength-Based Therapy, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to tailor treatment to each person's unique needs. Together, we'll explore the patterns contributing to anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, stress, substance use concerns, eating disorders, and mood-related challenges while developing healthier coping skills and practical strategies for long-term change. My goal is to provide a compassionate and empowering environment where clients feel supported, understood, and capable of creating meaningful progress.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy, respect, and collaboration. I strive to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can openly discuss your experiences and work toward goals that are meaningful to you. As we work together, you can expect to develop healthier coping skills, increase self-awareness, strengthen emotional resilience, and gain greater confidence in your ability to navigate life's challenges. Whether you're healing from trauma, managing anxiety or depression, addressing substance use concerns, or seeking support through difficult life transitions, my goal is to help you feel empowered and supported every step of the way. Meaningful growth is possible, and you do not have to navigate it alone.
