As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am committed to creating a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and work towards meaningful personal growth. I specialize in working with new mothers, young adults, and individuals processing trauma. My hope is to help you build self-awareness, better understand thought patterns, emotions, and relationships, and navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and resilience. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I believe healing begins with feeling heard and understood. We will work together to explore the impact of life experiences, process emotions, and develop practical tools that support lasting change. I strive to provide an empathetic and collaborative therapeutic relationship that empowers you to move toward the life you want to create.

I am a licensed therapist specializing in the treatment of anxiety disorders, generalized anxiety (GAD), relationship issues, couples therapy, depression symptoms, and stress-related concerns. I work with individuals experiencing chronic anxiety, rumination, panic symptoms, emotional overwhelm, burnout, and mood-related challenges. I provide structured support to help clients manage symptoms, improve emotional regulation, and develop effective coping skills. I also specialize in couples therapy and relationship counseling, supporting partners with communication issues, recurring conflict, trust concerns, emotional disconnection, and attachment-related patterns. I offer LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and provide a safe, inclusive environment for clients of all identities and relationship structures. My work is collaborative and evidence-based, focused on symptom reduction and relational improvement.

Reaching out for therapy can feel like one of the hardest first steps, and I believe you deserve a space where you can simply be yourself, without fear of judgment. My goal is to create a supportive, compassionate environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward the life you want. I work with adolescents, adults, older adults, families, and athletes who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, stress, or feelings of being stuck. Together, we'll explore the patterns that may be keeping you from living the life you deserve while building practical tools to help you navigate challenges with greater confidence and self-compassion. I believe healing begins with curiosity rather than criticism. Many of us have learned to accept our thoughts as facts or carry beliefs about ourselves that were shaped by painful experiences. Therapy offers an opportunity to gently examine those beliefs, develop new perspectives, and reconnect with your strengths and values. My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and tailored to your unique needs. I integrate evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and trauma-informed care to help you build resilience, increase emotional well-being, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're looking for short-term support to work through a specific challenge or longer-term therapy to heal from past experiences, I would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey toward healing and growth.
