When life looks “fine” from the outside but feels overwhelming on the inside, therapy can help you slow down and find your footing again. I’m an LCSW with nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health field and over 20 years providing therapy to adults navigating anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, work-life imbalance, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with high-functioning professionals who are used to carrying a lot for others while quietly struggling with pressure, perfectionism, or exhaustion themselves.

Clients often describe my style as calm, steady, practical, and deeply supportive. I help you make sense of what is driving your stress, understand the patterns underneath your anxiety or burnout, and build realistic steps that help you feel more grounded, clear, and in control. I draw from CBT, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies, but I tailor the work to your pace, needs, and goals. If you’re feeling stuck, drained, or ready for something to shift, I offer a space where you can breathe, regroup, and move forward with greater confidence.

I received my Master’s and LSW in Social Work in 2012 and my Clinician Licensure in 2015. I also have a bachelors in education. I practiced in an adult outpatient hospital setting for 10 years. During my tenure there, I used the following modalities when treating clients: Solution Focused Brief Therapy, CBT, Motivational interviewing, Narrative therapy, Strengths based therapy, Problem solving therapy, mindfulness, crisis and suicide prevention, Grief and Loss, and provided countless hours in coaching individuals on disease prevention, chronic conditions and life solutions. I believe education empowers people to make informed choices and include this is most sessions to enhance therapy. I am also trained in all therapies listed in my bio and use these regularly. I use modalities separately and together according to what is needed and how you are progressing, but my base construct is CBT. Emotion Freedom Technique is a new way to approach trauma which I have been using over several months for people with trauma and have seen fantastic results.
