Overview

I have 10 years experience as a Licensed Social Worker. I enjoy taking various trainings so my skills and knowledge are always fresh. For many, the idea of sharing your most personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences with someone else can be overwhelming, particularly if you have faced judgment, rejection, trauma, or other adverse experiences in your life. It can be difficult to imagine trusting someone enough to allow them to hear your story. However, it is in that vulnerable place where healing can occur. I strive to create a warm, safe, and accepting environment as a means to develop trust and a strong therapeutic alliance. My approach is supportive and collaborative, and we will work at a pace that is comfortable for you. I have broad experience effectively addressing issues related to depression, anxiety, poor self-esteem, anger management, past sexual abuse trauma, and PTSD. Just as you are unique, your story and journey in life are as well. My goal is to assist you on your path to self-discovery, healing, and making the changes you want in your life. I look forward to working with you.

Sessions are available in person at partner facilities and via secure telehealth, so care fits the realities of each patient's day.
