About me

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I know that reaching out for help takes a lot of courage, and it can sometimes feel overwhelming to take that first step. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate, and welcoming space where you can be yourself and feel comfortable sharing what’s on your mind. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, including those with disabilities. I’m passionate about helping others heal, grow, and find meaningful ways to move forward toward the life they want to live.

Get to know me

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

During our first session, we’ll take some time to get to know each other and talk about what brings you to therapy. I’ll invite you to share what’s been going on in your life and what you hope to gain from our work together. We’ll identify your goals and start creating a personalized plan that feels right for you. My approach is collaborative and supportive—you set the pace, and we’ll work together to make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strengths include creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly seen and supported. I use evidence-based approaches that are personalized to each client’s unique needs, helping them build insight, resilience, and practical tools for daily life. With over a decade of experience in diverse settings, I bring flexibility, empathy, and a broad skill set to help clients experience meaningful growth, healing, and positive change.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I take a client-centered approach to help you reach your goals and develop strategies to become the best version of yourself. My areas of focus include stress management, life transitions, anxiety, depression, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and relationship concerns. I utilize evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, solution-focused treatment, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused care to support growth and healing.
