I’m a firm believer that we are all carriers of deep, complex life stories. These stories build and shape our inner worlds and can be both elevating and/or burdensome to us. They build our reality and how we place ourselves within it. As a licensed clinical social worker, my work focuses on helping my clients interact with their stories, organize their habits, and shape the mental patterns that they are functioning within. We work together to make certain these stories are in alignment with the life they want to build for themselves. My approach to mental health care focuses on the mind-body connection, and a deep emphasis on both thought and bodily sensation awareness. I hope to partner with my clients as they find more security and self understanding within our work together. I look forward to seeing you all within the space and am excited to begin our work together!

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

First session are often a space to learn more about the areas that you wish to work on and where you'd like our focus to be. Conversationally, this is a time to build a little more comfort between us and for me to get to know about who you are. I try to make it very clear that we can go as deep as you are comfortable with, whether that jumping right into the deep end or wading in more slowly.

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

I'm committed to showing up fully with my clients and helping them engage with both the story and sensations that they are living within. By engaging with both thought and feelings in the body, my work helps those who might feel like they are only living within thought loops or trapped in bodily emotional sensations. My goal is to take a holistic integrative approach to the mind body connection and to be a support in my clients' unique journey to self knowledge.
