Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am dedicated to supporting adolescents and adults navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, grief, loss, trauma, and significant life transitions. My practice is rooted in the belief that every individual possesses the capacity for healing and growth. I strive to create a safe, empowering environment where you can explore your concerns with hope and encouragement, working collaboratively toward the positive change you seek.

My approach to therapy

I integrate client-centered care, solution-focused techniques, CBT, and EMDR to provide personalized, evidence-based treatment. My goal is to create a collaborative space where you feel empowered to explore challenges, build practical coping skills, and work toward lasting positive change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will focus on getting to know each other. Listening to your goals, strengths, supports and discuss how we can integrate my therapy approaches to your needs.
