Great to meet you!

Seeking help can be difficult and at times it may surface a variety of different emotions. Congratulations on taking that first step in trying to improve your mental health! With years of experience as a Medical Social Worker, I was fortunate to learn how our physical health status and mental health can have huge impacts on each other. Working with clients with chronic medical conditions, adjustment issues, depression, sleep issues and seeing progress on an individual level has been insightful and meaningful.

My approach to therapy

Everyone experiences life from a unique lens and individualized perspective. Therefore, working with clients I focus on tailoring my approach to align, support and empower you to reach your personal goals.

What you can expect from me

I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We’ll work together to figure this out! I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. From there, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
