I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who centers my practice around working with adolescents and young adults who wish to address self-exploration and identity development, navigation of conflict in relationships, and the impact of trauma on current life experiences. I find it important to ground our therapy in trust, then we can begin to explore your emotional experience as a way to understand how you navigate your present. I integrate the intersection of therapeutic work and social justice work whenever possible, ensuring that our work is contextualized within and in opposition to the oppressive systems that govern our society. Additionally, as a school social worker, I am also able to assist with any school-based concerns you may be experiencing.

Get to know me

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

In our first session you will be met with warmth, humor, and the space you deserve to deepen an understand of who you are.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My style combines honesty with compassion. I make sure to hold non-judgmental space as you share your story, yet, I am not a therapist that holds back from naming difficult truths. At the end of the day, your opinion of your own life matters most and since that is where growth happens, we make sure we always return to that.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work best with individuals 14-26 of all gender, sexuality, and racial experiences. I hope to engage in therapeutic work with young people who want to explore who they are through the lenses of their relationships, trauma, and societal impact. I believe that therapy should be seen as an equivalent for the mind as what visiting a PCP is for the body, we should be checking in on our mental wellness regularly. I hope to work with folks who align with that understanding of what therapy can be for them .
