Great to meet you!

I am glad you are here. Welcome! We all need a hand at times. My life experiences and education have shaped my work as a licensed clinical social worker, allowing me to create a safe and supportive space for individuals navigating life transitions, grief, relationship challenges, or personal growth.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I believe there’s no “one-size-fits-all” when it comes to healing and growth. My approach is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and a strong belief in your inner resilience. We’ll explore what you need and build a path forward that feels authentic, empowering, and aligned with your values.

What you can expect from our first session

If you’re exploring your options, you’re not alone. Finding the right therapist is an important step. You deserve someone who sees you, hears you, and can walk alongside you with compassion and clarity. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but it can also bring deep relief and growth. We will discuss your needs and wants at this time and create a plan that best suits your needs.
