If you’ve just landed on my page, I invite you to pause. Take a deep breath. Feel your feet on the ground. Notice what your body is holding in this moment—tension, fatigue, grief, maybe even hope. You’ve already taken a brave step by being here. You’re choosing to tend to your inner life and honor your own healing. I support individuals navigating grief, loss, infertility, caregiving, and life transitions—especially when the path feels unclear or overwhelming. Together, we listen deeply to your body’s wisdom and explore what your spirit longs to express and release. Grief is not just an emotion—it’s an embodied experience, one that moves in waves. Whether you’re mourning a loved one, the loss of a dream, or a shift in your identity, we’ll approach your healing gently, with curiosity and compassion. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I create sacred, grounded space where you can slow down, feel, and reconnect. Our work together honors mind, body, and soul—inviting transformation in your own timing, on your own terms. You don’t have to navigate this alone. If your heart is longing for peace and deeper connection, I invite you to reach out. Let’s walk this path together.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our initial session, we will review intake paperwork and forms, laying the groundwork for our work together. This session is also an opportunity for us to begin building a strong therapeutic relationship—one rooted in trust, safety, and collaboration. Like constructing a house, a solid foundation is essential; without it, the space may feel uneasy and unstable. During this time, I will invite you to share what brings you to therapy, your hopes for the process, and any concerns you may have. We will explore your history at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and there will be space to ask any questions about the therapy process. My goal is to create a non-judgmental, inviting environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported from the very start.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I integrate my personal experiences into my professional role as a therapist, allowing me to connect with clients in a deeply meaningful way. My greatest strengths lie in my ability to provide both empathetic and expert support to those navigating grief and loss, particularly parents raising children with special needs. My lived experience enables me to offer not only clinical insight but also genuine understanding, creating a space where clients feel truly seen and supported.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am best positioned to serve individuals who are navigating profound grief, loss, and life’s most challenging transitions—those who, despite their pain, hold a deep desire for healing, growth, and self-discovery. You may be grieving the loss of a loved one, adjusting to the end of a significant relationship, or facing an unexpected life transition. Perhaps you are a mother caring for a child with special needs, carrying both the love and emotional weight of this role. Or maybe you are a woman confronting infertility, questioning your identity, or searching for meaning in the midst of change. What unites the individuals I work with is not just their pain, but their willingness to explore their emotions and seek a path forward. You recognize that healing is not linear and that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. You are looking for a compassionate, experienced guide who will honor your unique journey and walk beside you as you rediscover your inner strength.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Psychodynamic
I have found psychodynamic therapy to be a powerful framework for understanding and addressing the underlying emotional patterns and unresolved conflicts that influence a person’s thoughts, behaviors, and relationships. My experience with psychodynamic therapy allows me to work with clients in a deep, insightful way, helping them uncover unconscious processes and explore how past experiences—particularly from childhood—can shape their present-day struggles. In my practice, I use psychodynamic techniques such as exploring transference, examining defense mechanisms, and identifying recurring patterns in relationships. By understanding these dynamics, clients can gain clarity about how past wounds may be influencing their current emotional state or behaviors. This approach fosters deep self-awareness and insight, which often leads to meaningful healing and transformation. I also integrate this method with mindfulness and body-awareness practices to help clients bring unconscious material into their conscious awareness in a grounded, present-focused way. This combination supports clients in not only understanding their past but also learning to navigate and shift long-standing emotional patterns in the here and now.
Integrative
Integrative therapy is a comprehensive and holistic approach that incorporates various therapeutic modalities, including psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness techniques, and somatic therapy. I've seen firsthand the profound transformations this method can facilitate, both professionally and personally. I use integrative therapy to help clients explore the emotional, physical, and spiritual dimensions of their experiences. This approach is particularly valuable when addressing the deep emotional layers that can be intertwined with grief and loss, allowing for a more comprehensive and profound healing journey.
Mind-body approach
During session, I help client pause and connect to their experiences, sensations, and expressions of their bodies. Humans tend to dissociate from their bodily experiences, getting stuck in their heads and ignore their bodies communication. When client learn how to connect and listen to their bodies, they can release old trauma, negative patterns, or other psychological issues that may hinder them.
