LCSW, 5 years of experience
New to Grow
I am a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to supporting individuals through life’s challenges with compassion and evidence-based care. I specialize in using EMDR, CBT, and DBT techniques to help clients heal from trauma, manage emotions, and build resilience. My approach is collaborative, empowering clients to take an active role in their healing journey. I believe therapy should be a safe and supportive space where therapy participants feel heard, understood, and valued. Together, we work toward creating lasting change, building healthier relationships, and fostering greater self-acceptance.
Our first session is spent getting to know you and what you are looking for in therapeutic partnership and reviewing together possible ways I can be of assistance to help you on your journey.
I value openness and honesty in the therapeutic relationship, and I encourage therapy participants to share if something isn’t working for them—just as I will let you know if I may not be the best fit for your needs. Your feedback is always welcome, whether you need more, less, or something different in our work together. Ultimately, these sessions are centered on you, your goals, and what feels most supportive in your healing journey.
A therapy participant who values a collaborative partnership in therapy, is willing to try new skills, and is committed to working toward healing, self-acceptance, and resilience.
I use CBT techniques to identify cognitive distortions, challenge unhelpful thinking, and help therapy participants develop problem-solving skills.
I use DBT interventions support therapy participants in building emotional regulation, mindfulness, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
I am a certified EMDRIA therapist. I integrate EMDR to help therapy participants reprocess stuck traumatic memories, reduce distress, and build adaptive beliefs.
I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities to support each client’s unique needs and goals. Clients are invited to explore EMDR, CBT, MI, Trauma Informed, and DBT techniques to discover what works best for them, creating a personalized path to growth. Through this integrative approach, clients gain practical skills, experience deeper healing, and build resilience to navigate life’s challenges.
