As a single mother who has faced the challenges of postpartum depression and anxiety, I know firsthand how overwhelming life’s transitions can feel.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 17 years of experience supporting clients through major life transitions. I primarily work with women navigating relationship challenges, divorce, postpartum stress, low confidence, and periods of uncertainty. My clients come to therapy seeking clarity, stability, and meaningful change, and I help them build the insight and confidence needed to move forward with purpose.
I earned my master’s in social work from Barry University. I use a solution-focused, strength-based approach that helps clients clarify what is working, identify goals, and take practical steps toward lasting progress. My work encourages alignment, self-growth, and a deeper sense of control over the path ahead.
