Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience, I work with teens and adults navigating stress, anxiety, life changes, relationships, grief, and emotional overwhelm. Sometimes you may not have the words for what you’re feeling—you just know something feels off. I offer a warm, judgment-free space to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and figure out what you need.

My approach to therapy

My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and practical. You don’t have to arrive knowing exactly what’s wrong or what you need. Together, we’ll slow things down, explore what’s beneath the surface, identify patterns, build practical tools, and make sense of what you’re experiencing. My goal is to help you feel understood, more grounded, and more connected to yourself.

What you can expect from me

Your first session is a chance to get to know each other and give you space to lay it all out—without needing to have the perfect words. I’ll help you work through the weeds, make sense of what’s happening, and figure out what we’re working with. From there, we’ll identify what you need and create a plan together that feels realistic and right for you.
