About me

I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can be fully yourself—without judgment, pressure, or having to have it all figured out. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m passionate about helping people make sense of what they’re going through, reconnect with themselves, and create meaningful change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, because you’re not one-size-fits-all. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. I also have a special interest in supporting military members, veterans, and emergency service personnel, whose experiences can come with their own unique challenges. My work draws from evidence-based approaches, including CBT and trauma-informed practices, but therapy with me is about more than a particular technique. We’ll look at the bigger picture—your experiences, relationships, patterns, values, strengths, and the things that have shaped you. Together, we’ll figure out what’s getting in the way and what can help you move forward. Sometimes you may need practical tools. Sometimes you need space to process. Sometimes you need someone to help you see things from a different perspective. We’ll meet you where you are and work from there. I’m also passionate about working with underserved communities and recognizing the ways culture, systems, and life circumstances can influence mental health and access to care. My goal isn’t to change who you are. It’s to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, feel more grounded, and create a life that feels more like your own. You don’t have to have it all figured out before you start. You just have to be willing to take the first step.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. You might feel nervous or tense, and that is completely normal —therapy is a process that we’ll build together over time. We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you. I’ll be here to support and guide you throughout the process. This is a supportive, collaborative space where you can simply be yourself. There's no pressure to have everything figured out or know exactly where to begin—we'll take it one step at a time, together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My approach is supportive, practical, human, and paced for real life. The work focuses on calming the nervous system, strengthening the mind-body connection, and helping you build practical tools to feel more grounded, balanced, and steady in everyday life. Therapy can help you feel calmer, more grounded, and better equipped to navigate life's challenges with confidence and self-compassion. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what to say. Arrive as you are. When life feels heavy, this is a place to pause, breathe, and find your way back to yourself.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

For individuals who seem to have it all together—but feel exhausted on the inside. I offer a warm, holistic approach to therapy for navigating anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, grief, depression, trauma and life's transitions. Together, we'll help calm your nervous system, reconnect with your mind and body, and build practical tools that bring more balance, resilience, and ease into your everyday life. My goal is to help you create meaningful, lasting changes that extend beyond our sessions and into your everyday life.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

The way we think affects how we feel, and how we feel influences what we do. Sometimes we get caught in patterns that leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, self-critical, or stuck. CBT helps you understand those patterns. We'll look at where these patterns come from, how they show up in your daily life, and what you can do differently. While CBT is practical and goal-oriented, I also believe it's important to understand the bigger picture. That's why, when helpful, we'll explore past experiences and childhood relationships to gain deeper insight into the patterns that continue to affect you today.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

You don't have to get rid of difficult thoughts and feelings to start living the life you want.—it's about learning how to stop letting them control you. That's the heart of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT helps you notice your thoughts and emotions without getting stuck in them. Together, we'll explore what matters most to you and find practical ways to move toward the life you want, even when things feel difficult. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, stress, depression, burnout, or a major life change, ACT gives you practical tools to become more present, build resilience, and make choices that align with your values. The goal is to help you create a life that feels meaningful, balanced, and true to who you are.
