Great to meet you!

Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker, who has over 25 years of experience working with individuals, families, first responders, and professionals seeking to heal from personal and workplace stress and trauma. I provide a warm and supportive environment to help you explore ways to improve your daily life with a trauma-informed approach. All we have is today.

My approach to therapy

I start with where you are, today. I explore your life experiences, relationships, and your past to see how it has shaped you today, and I empower you to be the creator of your own life.

What you can expect from me

You can expect a warm and welcoming environment that is safe to share what is weighing on you. We will do a thorough exploration of what has shaped your life, and we will set goals together that come from within.
