Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 10 years of experience providing individual, family and group counseling to adults, children and adolescents. Anxiety, Depression, Grief and Loss, Anger Management, ADHD and Self-Esteem are just a few of some of the areas of concerns I can assist in helping you work through.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use a variety of treatment methods directed at helping improve your mental and emotional wellbeing. I assist individuals identify hidden and surface barriers that have impacted the way they see and/or treat themselves and others. Techniques I use in sessions can range from cognitive behavioral to experiential approaches.

What you can expect from our first session

It's important for me to bring a level of comfort and peace to help you feel safe and open to share some of your most difficult concerns. Together you and I will work to develop a personalized plan for success, through healing and growth to help improve or change the areas you are struggling with.
