Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in Texas and Utah with 8 years of active professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, & issues with self-esteem. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

My approach to therapy

I love helping people address their concerns and discover new solutions. I am here to help you see what you may or may not see. I will be a sounding board, share insights and observations, teach new skills, guide you in problem solving and be an emotional support throughout the entire process.

What you can expect from me

During our first session I will talk about the therapeutic process and what it may look like. We will walk through logistics of therapy and answer any question you have.

I spend time gathering details about what led you to seeking therapy at this time. I may ask questions about previous therapy experiences, family dynamics, and information in other categories that seem relevant to your treatment goals. I may ask a lot of questions to help me learn more about you.
