Hello! I am an LCSW with 15 years of experience working with adolescents and their families. I have worked in community mental health, home-based services and as an outpatient therapist. I enjoy supporting and teaching clients the skills necessary to navigate life’s challenges. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of therapy and is essential to making progress.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session I will focus on getting to know you and putting you at ease with the therapeutic process. Relationships are the most important part of therapy in my opinion and I will work hard to build a positive one with you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

In my 15 years of experience I have developed strong relationship building skills. I have also learned and used many therapeutic techniques that I combine in unique ways based on clients’ goals.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with clients who are motivated and open-minded regarding new strategies and techniques. I especially enjoy working with women’s issues, including perinatal mental health and infertility/reproductive issues.
