I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience. Working with individuals of varying backgrounds and challenging issues—including addictions (all forms), complex post-traumatic stress, grief and loss, and difficult life transitions—has given me the ability to see and support people through their most difficult burdens, help them gain skills and insight, and uncover their strengths, capabilities, and resolve. People just want to feel better, have a sense of agency, and live life with some peace. I am honored to walk that journey with them.

I draw on a multitude of clinical modalities. Looking at an individual's history, childhood experiences, strengths, and challenges helps determine the best course of action—and the client always has the final say in their care. I am honest, compassionately confrontational, and reality-based, helping clients find the courage and insight to reach their goals.

I understand the difficulty in asking for help and the resistance to leaning on someone else to make real changes. I know the hurt you don't want anyone to know about and the deep-seated need to be understood. Let me walk alongside you—offering support, encouragement, and insight. Take that HUGE step forward and schedule an appointment. I am here for you.

Life can be overwhelming when you're constantly showing up for everyone else. Many women carry so much- family responsibilities, relationships, careers- while quietly putting their own needs aside. I provide a warm, supportive space where you can slow down, breathe, and focus on you. As a marriage and family therapist with over 10 years of experience, I work with individuals & families, and have a passion for supporting women through life’s transitions, relationship challenges, & personal growth. If you are feeling stretched thin, disconnected, or ready for change, therapy can be a place to reconnect with your strength and clarity.

My approach is rooted in systemic and cognitive behavioral therapy, where we will explore both the patterns in your relationships and the thoughts that may be shaping your experiences. I'm committed to creating an atmosphere of confidentiality, compassion, and respect. In our work, you will be met with active listening, collaboration, and gentle guidance.

Therapy isn't one-size-fits-all. I tailor each session to your unique needs, honoring your story, culture, & goals. You deserve a space where you feel seen, heard, and valued. Healing doesn't require perfection- it begins with willingness. If you are ready to invest in yourself, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward the life you desire.
