I am a Licensed Clinical Social worker with over 13 years experience in both the private and public sector. Beginning your healing process and the journey can often feel quite fearful yet one of the most courageous steps in your life thus far. Building a comfortable environment and encouraging emotional safety allows my clients to work toward achieving their goals. I assist individuals struggling with substance use and clinical concerns, including grief, mood disorders, postpartum, and adjustment disorders. If you're experiencing changes in your mood, struggling with substance use, or facing challenges in your relationships, you're not alone.

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

In the first session, clients can expect for me to conduct a psychosocial evaluation to gather information about the client’s background, relationships, mental health and medical history, and current stressors to guide treatment planning and build rapport. We will also begin goal setting to explore both short and long term goals you hope to achieve by coming to therapy.

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

My greatest strength as a provider is my unconditional positive regard, patience during this rapport building and healing time, and nonjudgemental stance which has assisted in the therapeutic process with clients.

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

I’m here to support you in navigating these complex issues and helping you find a path to healing and growth. If you’re dealing with mood disorders like depression, anxiety, or bipolar disorder, I understand how exhausting and overwhelming those feelings can be. Together, we can work on identifying triggers, understanding the root causes, and creating a plan to manage emotions more effectively. Whether it's learning coping strategies, building healthier thought patterns, or seeking appropriate treatment, I’ll help you gain the tools to regain balance and find peace.
