I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work from Virginia Commonwealth University with 13 years of experience in the field of mental health. I have a history working with adults and adolescents in the community mental health and hospital settings. I have worked with clients managing challenges such as difficult relationships, stress management, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma.
I will work collaboratively with you to create a safe space for you to begin your healing journey as we identify goals to help you live a healthy fulfilling life.
I utilize a person-centered and holistic approach incorporating a variety of treatment modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Somatic Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I seek to provide a warm, compassionate, and welcoming therapeutic environment.
I have helped clients navigate significant life transitions such as dealing with changes in family dynamic, career transitions, role conflicts, and dealing with developmental changes as they move through various stages of life. I also enjoy working with clients from the BIPOC community acknowledging the intersectionality of the unique challenges impacting this community. I have experience helping clients process relational trauma and improve their ability to regulate emotions. I also enjoy helping clients explore their identity and improve their self concept.
