LCSW, 8 years of experience
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel like a safe conversation where you can show up as your authentic self. My approach is compassionate, practical, and tailored to your unique needs, whether you’re navigating life changes, managing stress, or working through deeper challenges. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes in your life.
In our first session, we will take time to get to know each other and talk about what brought you to therapy. I will ask questions to better understand your background, current concerns, and what you hope to achieve. It is a relaxed, judgment-free conversation with no pressure to share more than you are ready for. We will discuss your goals, outline how we might work together, and make sure you feel comfortable with the process so you leave with a clear idea of what our work together will look like.
My greatest strengths are creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel genuinely heard and understood, and offering practical tools they can use right away. I combine empathy with a straightforward, solutions-focused approach that helps clients gain clarity and make meaningful progress. I draw from evidence-based methods while tailoring each session to the unique needs and goals of the person in front of me, making therapy both effective and deeply personal
My ideal clients are adults who are ready to explore what’s been holding them back and are motivated to create meaningful change in their lives. They may be dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or feeling “stuck” in a season of transition. Whether they’re seeking tools to cope, clarity to move forward, or a space to process and heal, I work best with people who value honesty, collaboration, and a practical, solutions-focused approach to therapy.
This approach helps identify and challenge negative thought patterns contributing to depression, anxiety and/or mood dysregulation.
I welcome reflective discussion centered around faith and how it relates to current struggles and life challenges. This is solely based on the client's preferences.
This approach focuses on encouraging an individual to articulate their strengths and resources. The primary focus is to identify solutions rather than delving deep into problems, fostering a positive outlook for future goals.
