I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker-Supervisor (LCSW-S) with a decade of experience helping diverse populations navigate the complexities of mental health. My approach is grounded in the understanding that our thoughts and emotions deeply influence our actions. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to restructure negative thinking and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support trauma recovery. I am deeply passionate about fostering a stigma-free environment where clients can develop the practical strategies necessary for meaningful and lasting change
The first step is always about safety. In our first session, we will move at your pace as you share what’s on your mind in a non-judgmental atmosphere. We’ll focus on understanding your immediate needs and identifying the goals that feel most important to you, ensuring you leave our first meeting with a sense of direction and the knowledge that you are in a supportive partnership.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of diverse populations, which has deeply informed my commitment to providing culturally competent and empathetic care. My approach is grounded in meeting you exactly where you are today—providing a space where you feel truly validated while also helping you identify your inherent strengths. I strive to offer the right balance of support and encouragement to empower you toward the changes you wish to see.
I work with adults experiencing stress, anxiety, depression or trauma who are struggling to navigate the weight of these issues on their own. I help clients understand and navigate difficult thoughts, build motivation, and move toward their goals with greater confidence. Together, we explore how thoughts and emotions influence behavior, develop practical tools to manage negative thinking, and practice strategies that support meaningful, lasting change.
