LCSW, 9 years of experience
Life transitions, grief and loss can be overwhelming, but you do not have to face them alone. With every session, I endeavor to create and promote a safe space where you can be vulnerable and feel empowered to do the work you need to do. I couple empathic listening with practical planning to help every person focus on their strengths. I strive to be compassionate, collaborative, and responsive to your needs – I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, you will identify what matters most to you and work towards reaching your goals.
