Great to meet you!

Hello! :) I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Reiki Master, yoga teacher, and mindfulness-based stress reduction teacher with experience working with teenagers and adults with a wide range of diagnosis and concerns. I believe that there is a stark difference between mental health and emotional wellness, and most people begin healing and growing in a deeper way when this is acknowledged in sessions. My work with others centers self-esteem, desire, authenticity, purpose, and relationships. Clients often describe me as attentive, warm, and surprisingly funny. :)

My approach to therapy

I utilize a self-complexity framework, drawing from multiple therapy modalities to meet the unique needs of each client.

What you can expect from me

I believe in autonomy and I think of therapy as a way to organize your internal and external world alongside someone else. You can expect me to tailor each session to meet your known needs, as well as leaving space for the unknown to be explored as well.
