I am a licensed clinical social worker with over ten years of experience working in a variety of social service and mental health settings. I help people cope with painful emotions and improve their relationships, so they can live their best lives. It is important that my clients feel validated and understood while I offer effective tools, rooted in evidence based techniques, that will help them feel better.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will talk about what brought you into therapy and how I can best support you in addressing your unique challenges. I'll ask you some questions about your background to get to know you a bit better and then we'll work together to develop a plan for your treatment.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am genuine, warm, and adept at recognizing and building upon my clients’ many strengths.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
As a clinician at a psychiatric hospital, I became extensively trained in DBT. I continue to facilitate DBT skills groups to help patients reduce their reliance on detrimental ways of coping including substances, self-harm, and avoidance and replace them with effective tools so they can feel better and be effective in their lives.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I help clients recognize the link between their negative self-talk and mood symptoms. We work together to challenge unhelpful thinking patterns and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Relational
Healing happens through supportive relationships. I use a warm, compassionate, and strength based approach to help build a strong therapeutic alliance and help people improve their relationships with themselves and others.
