I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I focus on providing compassionate, client-centered therapy to individuals facing a range of mental health challenges. My approach is rooted in humanistic principles, where I believe in the inherent potential of every person to grow, heal, and thrive when given the right support. With specialized training and years of hands-on experience, I work with clients to help them set and achieve meaningful goals that promote emotional well-being, personal growth, and long-term success. The clients I serve come from diverse backgrounds, and I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet their unique needs. Whether it's addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, or relationship issues, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their feelings and experiences. I empower clients to take an active role in their healing process, guiding them toward greater self-awareness and resilience. Through our work together, I aim to have a lasting impact on my clients' lives by helping them develop healthier coping strategies, improve their relationships, and find fulfillment in their personal and professional lives. I believe that through a collaborative, empathetic, and strengths-based approach, individuals can overcome even the most challenging obstacles and create meaningful, lasting change. My goal is to inspire and support my clients on their journey to living their most authentic and empowered lives.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session, we’ll talk briefly about confidentiality, what it means, and the boundaries that help create a safe and secure space for your journey. We will get to know one another and review your current symptoms, how they impact you, your goals, strengths, and discuss desired outcomes with treatment. We will discuss your history and any factors which may be contributing to your current situation.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have a unique ability to connect with with clients, making them feel understood and supported. This is a judgement-free zone that is YOUR safe space to bring absolutely anything to the table. I also welcome feedback, as I am here for you and want you to have the best experience possible.

My treatment methods

Eclectic

I pull from many different treatment methods to meet the individual needs of each client in the moment.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is a common method used to address cognitive distortions, self-esteem, depression, and anxiety

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

EFT is a method used as needed to address emotional responses.

Humanistic

I practice from a holistic approach where I consider the person and the environment, focus on personal growth, and collaborate with my clients to fully engage them in the therapeutic process.

Strength-Based

I believe we all have strengths and if we build on those, we are more likely to achieve our individual life goals.
