Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) seeking to offer a safe and welcoming space for individuals to access their own inner abilities to heal. For the past 9 years, I have worked as a therapist for individuals across the life span in outpatient, school-based, and private practice settings. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, OCD, perinatal depression and anxiety, and trauma-related stressors. My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, person-centered, and collaborative. I blend cognitive behavioral therapy with mindfulness and somatic-based practices to fit each individual’s unique needs. I welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and individuals of any race, ethnicity, religion, or cultural background. Choosing to begin therapy is a courageous step, and I look forward to embarking on this work with you.

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

In our first session, we’ll take time getting to know each other and you’ll share your hopes for therapy. We’ll collaboratively identify goals, and select treatment modalities tailored to your desires and preferences. At the end of our first session, I hope you feel a sense of clarity about the work we will do and empowerment to get started.

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

I care deeply about my work and the clients I serve. I bring compassion, attunement, and perspective into my sessions, and believe that a strong therapeutic alliance is foundational for creating change. Over the past 9 years, I’ve become skilled at supporting clients while they identify root causes of distress, shift distorted narratives, and access their innate abilities to heal.
