About me

Hello, I’m glad you’re here. I am a therapist and social worker with advanced training and years of experience supporting individuals, families, and communities. My academic journey includes both a Master of Social Work and a Doctorate of Social Work, reflecting my commitment to understanding people and creating spaces where healing and growth are possible. Life can bring stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, or unexpected transitions, and it is not always easy to carry those experiences alone. My role is to walk alongside you, offering compassion, encouragement, and practical tools to help you find balance and strength. I especially enjoy working with individuals who may be juggling many responsibilities—at home, at work, or in their communities—yet still want to prioritize their own well-being. Together, we will uncover your strengths, explore new perspectives, and create meaningful strategies for growth and healing. My approach is collaborative and supportive, grounded in the belief that every story matters and that positive change is always possible.

Get to know me

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

In our first session, my priority is to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel comfortable sharing your story at your own pace. We will spend time getting to know one another, discussing what brings you to therapy, and identifying the goals you hope to achieve. I will ask questions to better understand your experiences, strengths, and concerns, but there is no pressure—you are in control of what you share. This initial meeting is also an opportunity for you to ask questions and get a sense of whether my approach feels like a good fit for you. Together, we will begin outlining a plan for your care, always keeping your needs and preferences at the center. My goal is for you to leave our first session feeling heard, supported, and hopeful about the steps ahead.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Clients often appreciate the balance of compassion and practicality I bring to therapy. I create a nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard while also helping you develop strategies that support real and lasting change. My approach is strengths-based and collaborative, meaning we focus not only on challenges but also on uncovering your resilience and inner resources. I draw from a variety of therapeutic methods, tailoring each session to fit your unique needs and goals rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you are seeking clarity, healing, or tools to manage life’s demands, my goal is to empower you with both encouragement and actionable steps that support growth and balance.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with individuals who are looking for support and guidance as they navigate life’s challenges. Whether you are managing mental health concerns, medical issues, relationship struggles, or simply feeling overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, I am here to meet you where you are. You don’t need to have everything figured out—my role is to walk alongside you, at your pace, as we explore what healing and growth can look like for you. Together, we will find approaches and strategies that fit your unique journey, creating a safe, supportive space where you can uncover strengths, gain clarity, and move toward a brighter, more balanced future. I welcome clients at all stages of motivation, whether you are ready for immediate change or just beginning to consider what support might help you move forward.
