Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who has spent over a decade working alongside children, teens and young adults in school settings. My work is centered on helping young people feel heard and seen as they navigate life transitions, emotional challenges, and everyday stressors.

My approach to therapy

I take a collaborative, grounded approach where clients can feel safe exploring their emotions and uncovering the strengths they already carry. My goal is to create a welcoming, supportive space where growth feels possible and new perspectives emerge at a comfortable pace.

What you can expect from me

Your first session will feel like a relaxed, welcoming conversation. We’ll explore what brings you to therapy and begin noticing the strengths you already have. My aim is for you to leave feeling understood, a bit more at ease, and clear on whether this space feels like the right fit.
