About me

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my Masters from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for over 10 years. I help adults struggling with stress and mental health issues become the best versions of themselves. I am passionate about meeting people where they are at and helping them feel better and reach their goals.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have over 10 years experience working as a therapist with clients from a variety of backgrounds and ages. I strive to be a safe space where clients can be comfortable being themselves without worrying about being judged. I enjoy giving people practical tools they can use right away to help ease their suffering and reach their goals.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with adults seeking to enhance coping skills and learn to manage negative thinking that disrupts their mood and daily life.
