LCSW, 3 years of experience
New to Grow
Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I provide counseling, emotional support, and practical strategies to help clients navigate life’s challenges and build confidence. I’m passionate about helping people grow, discover their strengths, and take small, meaningful steps toward their goals in a warm and supportive environment. I also draw on my experience leading groups and collaborating with other professionals to create a space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped to make lasting positive changes. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and tailored to each individual’s needs, helping clients build resilience, hope, and a greater sense of well-being.
In our first session, we’ll get to know each other, discuss your goals, and begin the intake process. This is also a chance to see if we are the right fit for one another, creating a comfortable space to start your journey toward growth and healing.
I work with clients of all ages to provide counseling, emotional support, and practical strategies for navigating life’s challenges. I’m passionate about helping people discover their strengths, build confidence, and take meaningful steps toward their goals, while integrating values like hope, grace, and compassion into the process. I also draw on my experience leading groups and collaborating with other professionals to create a supportive and empowering environment. Together, we focus on growth, resilience, and positive change.
I enjoy working with individuals who are ready for change and want to feel more balanced, confident, and hopeful. My ideal clients may be navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck and unsure where to start. Together, we’ll create a supportive space to identify strengths, build coping skills, and take small, meaningful steps toward the life they want to live.
In my practice, I use CBT to help clients gain awareness of how their thoughts influence their emotions and actions. Together, we work to challenge unhelpful beliefs, develop balanced thinking, and build practical coping skills to manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I tailor CBT techniques—such as mindfulness, reframing (cognitive restructuring), and mindfulness-based strategies—to meet each client’s goals and pace, empowering them to create lasting positive changes.
I believe faith can be an important part of a person’s journey, serving as a source of strength, guidance, and healing. Although my approach is not religious, I integrate Christian values such as grace, forgiveness, hope, and compassion into my work, while also drawing on evidence-based techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused interventions, and mindfulness.
In my practice, I use Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to help clients identify their existing strengths, resources, and past successes as tools for creating positive change. We work together to build on what’s already working and explore practical next steps. Together, we emphasize small, achievable goals and incremental progress to help clients gain confidence and momentum as they move toward their desired outcomes.
