With nearly two decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate the challenges of mental health, substance use, trauma, and life transitions. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Addiction Professional, and Ph.D.-level clinician, I bring both clinical expertise and genuine compassion to every session.

I believe people are more than their diagnosis, addiction, or current struggle. My goal is to create a space where you feel respected, understood, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change and lasting recovery.

You may have learned to navigate spaces where parts of you didn’t feel fully seen or accepted. Over time, those experiences can shape how you see yourself.

What is the story you tell yourself? What messages have you taken in from others—and from the world around you? How have those shaped the way you see yourself?

For many people, these stories are formed in spaces where parts of them felt unseen, misunderstood, or not fully accepted. Over time, this can lead to cycles of self-doubt, shame, or feeling like you have to keep proving your worth.
