Clients say this provider is
Welcome—I’m glad you’re here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing individual therapy and occasional small groups. I work with adults navigating life transitions, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, or a desire to better understand themselves and experience life differently. People come to therapy for many reasons—Some people come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Some come grieving from loss of themselves or someone they love. Grief comes in many forms, each one matters. Therapy offers a space to slow down, reflect, and explore new ways of thinking and being. I believe we are never too old to grow and change. Even in difficult seasons, it is possible to begin again and reconnect with who you are at your core. Therapy can help you rediscover yourself while building or strengthening the skills you need for your life.
Our first session is a conversation focused on helping you feel comfortable, understood, and supported. We’ll talk about what’s bringing you in and what you’d like to work on. If you’re unsure, we can explore that together. We’ll also make space for questions and determine if we’re a good fit moving forward.
We all carry stories that shape how we see ourselves and the world. I help clients explore their experiences with compassion and curiosity so that insight, healing, and direction can emerge. I also support clients in recognizing their ability to make meaningful choices aligned with their values.
The clients I’m best positioned to serve... I work well with adults who are open to reflection and growth. Many of my clients are navigating life changes, coping with grief, managing anxiety or depression, or looking to rediscover their strengths and sense of direction. I also have experience supporting parents of children with special needs, including autism and learning differences, as well as adults who have recently received a diagnosis or have lived with one for many years. Wherever you are in your journey, we begin there. Seeking support takes courage, and I would be honored to walk alongside you in that process.

People of all ages have benefited from learning to use CBT in their daily lives. I have taught this method to people from different backgrounds, and many have found it helpful.
Mindfulness and meditation practices can be useful and facilitate healing. I have used this with people of various ages and backgrounds, and they have reported it is helpful.
Dr. William Glasser taught about Reality Therapy decades ago. This is often used to help people see the choices they do have and the consequences and rewards of their personal choices. Sometimes, we do not realize we have options. This allows us to see what we can control and what we cannot control.
ACT has been used for decades to help people accept what can't be changed, change what can, and live healthier lives more peacefully. Commitment is needed to walk through any change, including ACT.
