Great to meet you!

As your therapist, I offer a Master’s Level License in Social Work (LMSW) and over 20 years of experience helping individuals hang on to hope and heal. My journey has allowed me the opportunity to help a diversity of people including those who were unemployed, suicidal, survivors of domestic and sexual violence, who were homeless, suffering from mental and behavioral challenges and those experiencing a crisis.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use a variety of approaches when addressing your unique needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is noted as an effective, evidenced-based treatment for a wide range of disorders. I also draw from other evidenced-based practices like Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing and Talk therapy. Working from a tailored treatment plan will help guide your therapeutic process.

What you can expect from our first session

I am excited to take the years of experience and learning I have gained throughout the years and provide meaningful therapeutic engagements with you.

My goal is to actively listen to your concerns and support you through your journey of discovery and healing. Therapy is a process that can move you towards being the healthiest version of yourself and living the life you desire.
