Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have experience providing psychotherapy to children, youth, adults and families for almost a decade. I have been trained in several modalities and I specialize in individual treatment.

My approach to therapy

I prefer to use a holistic approach and look to partner with you in the way in which you'd like treatment to proceed. I have been successful working with clients experiencing issues surrounding identity, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ exploration and affirmation, among many others.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to sit with someone who cares about you and what you are currently going through. With a warm and humorous approach we can reach together a space in which you feel comfortable exploring your needs.
