Through personal and professional experience, I understand what it is to face hardship and the importance of identifying and building upon our unique strengths to grow and overcome challenges in life.
I am a licensed certified social worker-clinical (LCSW-C) with over six years of experience in behavioral health services, working with adults struggling with a wide range of mental health challenges. I specialize in working with clients who have complex needs and those within marginalized populations and communities, approaching each person through a humanistic lens. I recognize that each client's needs are unique, and my therapeutic style—grounded in empathy and unconditional positive regard—is not one-size-fits-all.
I am task-centered and solution-focused, drawing on other approaches interchangeably in order to address individuals. I am direct, and will identify and discuss a client's ambivalence or resistance, as needed, in order to help the client continue on their healing process through their individual treatment plan.
Asking for help is the first step, and that step alone shows real strength and the innate drive toward your desire for change and growth. From there, we work together—forming a therapeutic relationship, identifying goals, strengthening coping tools, building connections, and exploring new perspectives—to help you find your personal fulfillment.

I am honored to take this journey with you. I chose this career in part because of my own transformative experience with counseling as a young teenager, and I strive to provide that same sense of support, understanding, and positive change for those I work with.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LPC) with 27 years of experience in the mental health field. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating PTSD, anxiety, relational concerns, and life transitions. My background includes work across inpatient settings, private practice, and community-based care, with a recent focus on supporting first responders, military families, and individuals seeking healthier relationships and emotional well-being.
I earned my doctorate in couple and family therapy from Drexel University in Philadelphia, where my research focused on intergenerational patterns within families. My clinical approach is client-centered and grounded in curiosity, compassion, and trust, with an emphasis on creating a safe, supportive space for meaningful exploration and growth.
I believe healing happens through strong therapeutic relationships built on safety and collaboration. I will work with you to focus on your priorities, explore difficult experiences at your pace, and support personal and relational growth. Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and I am honored to support you in that process.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.
