(she/her)
As a Licensed Clinical social Worker with over 20 years of experience, I specialize in supporting women and adolescents navigate challenges related to life transitions, medical conditions, trauma and career challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and supportive. I work with you to empower you to build resilience and create meaningful and sustainable change. I believe therapy should be safe, an empowering space where you can explore your life experiences without judgement; therapy is a brave step; I am here to collaborate with you in your journey.
The first sessions will be all about you, getting to know you, the reason for seeking therapy, your background, your goals and how I work. A clear understanding of confidentiality and professionalism and a space that centers around your values and strengths with the right pace for you.
I am a seasoned medical social worker with over 20 years of experience supporting patients and families through complex health challenges. With my PhD in Leadership Studies, I bring a systems-level perspective to clinical practice, blending compassionate, culturally responsive care with strategic advocacy and interdisciplinary collaboration. My strengths lie in clinical judgement, building trust and engagement, empathic communication, and supporting families through complex decision making. I am able to work effectively across cultures and communities, and build effective bridges across systems of care.
I’m best positioned to support adults—particularly women—navigating complex life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of trauma or family dysfunction. Many of my clients are high-functioning yet feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected—seeking greater clarity, emotional balance, and a stronger sense of self. I work well with individuals who are motivated for insight and growth, including those looking to break generational patterns, build healthier boundaries, and create more fulfilling, aligned lives.
