I’m a Licensed Social Worker with a deep commitment to helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief, and find safety and strength within themselves. My clinical focus is on trauma recovery, including PTSD and complex PTSD, as well as those experiencing loss and grief (both loss of a loved one and also disenfranchised grief).

Over the years, I’ve pursued extensive training in trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and grief processing.

For the past 8 years, I’ve worked closely with elderly and disabled individuals, supporting them through life’s emotional and practical challenges. Before becoming a social worker, I worked in banking, but I felt a strong pull toward work that allowed me to truly make a difference in people’s lives. That calling led me to counseling. I bring compassion, patience, and a deep respect for each person’s story into the work we do together.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a strong background in trauma-informed care, anxiety treatment, and grief work. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and respectful of your lived experience. I understand how past trauma, chronic stress, and life transitions can shape the nervous system and impact daily functioning, even when life looks “okay” on the outside. My role is to meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you make sense of your experiences while building practical tools for healing. I value authenticity, emotional safety, and meaningful connection in the therapeutic relationship.
