LCSW, 10 years of experience
New to Grow
I am a caring counselor with 10 years of experience in helping individuals navigate their emotional and mental health journeys. My approach is compassionate, client-centered, and tailored to meet each person's unique needs. I specialize in supporting clients through challenges such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, and self-esteem issues. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your feelings, gain insights, and develop effective coping strategies to create a more fulfilling life. I help people cut through confusion to discover what truly matters in their relationships and lives. Whether you're a couple caught in repetitive conflicts, or an individual navigating life transitions, my approach combines intellectual depth, genuine warmth, and practical structure to create lasting, measurable change.
From the moment you schedule your first appointment with me, you’ll find me honest, compassionate, and professional. I will create a warm, welcoming, nonjudgmental space for you to heal and grow. Together we will find a solution that will work for you so you can thrive. Schedule your first appointment today.
I believe therapy works best when it balances compassionate understanding with practical action. I believe in practical action over endless processing—it gets you nowhere except more exhausted. My clients often describe my style as: Direct and focused — I don't believe in vague insights or endless analysis. We’ll work toward clearly defined outcomes you can actually feel and measure. Intellectually engaging — I'll help you see your challenges from new angles, questioning assumptions that keep you stuck. Genuinely warm — Behind the directness is a deep care for your wellbeing and belief in your capacity to grow. I integrate a modality which may include Dialectical Behavior Therapy , Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Solution-focused, CBT, grief counseling.
