I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nearly nine years of experience providing outpatient therapy to children, adolescents, adults, and families. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, peer conflicts, trauma, relationship struggles, and life transitions who are seeking support, clarity, and practical tools to feel more grounded and confident. Many of the individuals and families I work with want to better understand themselves, improve their relationships, build effective coping strategies, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

My approach is integrative and personalized, drawing from CBT, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and solution-focused therapy—tailored to what works best for you. I help clients build practical coping tools, increase self-awareness, and heal from past experiences so they can feel more grounded, confident, and in control. 

Together, we'll work at a pace that feels right for you toward meaningful, lasting change. Therapy with me is about more than symptom relief. It is about reclaiming your voice, reconnecting with your values, and building the life you want. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and empowered.
