About
I am a resource that can be used to resolve difficult conflicts or overcome barriers in your life.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. My therapeutic style is warm, empathetic, and action-oriented, creating a safe space where clients feel heard and supported. I specialize in tailoring care to each person’s unique needs, guiding them toward meaningful change and lasting growth. By focusing on strengths, values, and goals, I work with clients to build skills that not only support their healing but also empower them beyond therapy.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Chicago. My approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and creative methods of self-expression. I aim to help clients unlock the best version of themselves while developing tools that promote long-term well-being.
Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. By seeking therapy, you have already taken an important step toward healing and self-discovery. I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you on your journey and answer any questions you may have about how I can support your growth and goals.

I believe healing happens in a space where you feel accepted just as you are.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9 years of experience supporting individuals on their journey toward healing and personal growth. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions while fostering greater self-awareness, emotional stability, and healthier relationships. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore new paths toward balance and resilience. My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices.
I earned a Master’s in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed CBT, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, dialectical behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions to promote lasting emotional healing.
I believe everyone has the strength to heal and create meaningful change. My role is to walk beside you with compassion and honesty as you rediscover your sense of purpose and peace. If you’re ready to begin your journey toward growth, I invite you to take the next step toward emotional wellness, and I look forward to working with you.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events. Therapists specializing in trauma create a secure environment to process and heal from these experiences, aiming to reduce trauma-related symptoms and enhance overall quality of life.
Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.
In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.
PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
