Life can ask a lot of us; especially when we’re caring for someone we love, grieving a loss, or adjusting to a new chapter. I’m a licensed clinical social worker who works with adults and older adults navigating caregiving, grief, anxiety, aging, relationships, and life transitions.
You may be supporting an aging parent, a spouse, a child with ongoing needs, or another loved one while trying not to lose yourself in the process. You may be grieving someone important, anticipating a loss, adjusting to changes in your health or independence, or simply wondering what you want this next season of life to look like.
My style is warm, conversational, practical, and down-to-earth. Therapy with me isn’t about sitting in a heavy room analyzing everything that has ever happened. We’ll make space for what’s difficult, but there is also room for humor, perspective, problem-solving, and finding ways to feel more grounded, connected, and like yourself again.

I have been working in the field for 8 years, and 5 as a clinical therapist. I love meeting people where they are at and understand change does not happen over night. I often try to mix humor, directness, and researched based interventions when working through life's challenges. When I am not in the office, I love to hike, rock climb, and do outings with my children.

I believe that when someone seeks therapy, they are reaching out because they want to move forward, feel less stuck, or find new ways to live well. I hold deep conviction that a meaningful, valued life is possible for anyone—even in the presence of disability, chronic pain or illness, depression, anxiety, trauma, or overwhelming life stress. I see psychotherapy as a collaborative space where we can discover the right pace and rhythm for facing those challenges: sometimes steady and gentle, sometimes more active and focused, always tailored to the person in front of me.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
