My counseling style has been described as warm, affirming and genuine, with a strengths-based perspective and occasional touches of humor. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and have been working in Private Practice as a therapist for 6 years. In the past I've worked with adults who are experiencing the need to make adjustments to life situations, as well as individuals who are requesting help in overcoming anxiety, depression, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder.

I specialize in helping people navigate the phase after medical treatment or recovery ends but life still doesn't feel right. As a licensed psychotherapist, brain tumor survivor, and breast cancer survivor, I understand the challenges that can remain long after others expect you to be "back to normal." Together, we'll address the emotional, cognitive, and nervous system impacts of illness, injury, and major life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based therapy, mindfulness, and practical tools to help you feel more grounded, resilient, and connected to yourself. Healing isn't about returning to who you were—it's about creating a life that feels whole again.
