Sometimes life feels unmanageable or even unfamiliar; the heaviness is more than you can bear. Do you feel overwhelmed or overlooked? My goal is to ensure that my client's feel seen and validated while working to empower them with tools to navigate their current challenges. Therapy is a collaborative effort that allows you to use your voice in identifying solutions for your life.
During the first session, I will ask quite a few questions so that I can best understand who you are and what you are looking for. I know that it can be uncomfortable and feel like a bit of an inquisition, but we're laying the groundwork to build a strong foundation.
Coming from a Social Work background gives me a broad scope, examining individual, community, and societal issues. I understand that each client is a mosaic of their experiences and environments and I create a space where we explore how all of those things impact the person.
My clients are transparent about where they are so that I can meet them there. They come willing to explore different possibilities and feel confident to tell me no or correct me when I misunderstand. They know that I can only work as hard as they will.

As a clinical social worker with 6 years of experience, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into my practice to help clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns, manage emotional distress, and develop healthier behaviors. CBT is a collaborative, evidence-based approach that focuses on understanding the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Together, we’ll work on realistic goals, practice new coping strategies, and build skills that you can use beyond therapy to improve your mental health and well-being. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or stress, CBT offers practical tools to create lasting change in your life.
As a clinical social worker with 6 years of experience, I specialize in Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help clients quickly identify their strengths and find practical solutions to their challenges. SFBT is a goal-oriented, future-focused approach that emphasizes what’s working in your life, rather than dwelling on problems. Together, we’ll explore your unique resources, highlight past successes, and build on what’s already going well to create positive, lasting change. Whether you're facing personal struggles, stress, or life transitions, SFBT empowers you to move forward with confidence and clarity.
