I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Truckee, California. I earned my Master’s degree from the University of Nevada, Reno, in 2005 and have been practicing as a therapist for the past two years. I specialize in working with teens and adults, addressing issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, and challenges related to work, life, and school. My therapeutic approach integrates mindfulness and compassionate inquiry, ensuring a holistic and supportive experience for my clients.

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

In our first session, we will focus on the issues that have brought you to therapy at this point in your life. We will discuss your goals for therapy and explore what strategies you have tried in the past, identifying what has been helpful and what has not. This initial session is a valuable opportunity for us to get to know each other and to determine how we can collaborate effectively to achieve the best possible outcomes for you.

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

I strive to create a space where clients feel seen, heard, supported, and compassionately challenged, fostering an environment conducive to lasting change. I value authenticity in my practice both for myself and clients.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

The ideal client possesses a sense of curiosity and a willingness to observe their patterns of behavior, thoughts, and actions to identify what is no longer serving them. They are open to working towards small, lasting changes and are ready to take responsibility for the challenging yet rewarding journey of personal growth.
