About
As a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW), I am passionate about supporting pre-teens (age 10+), adolescents, and adults as they navigate life’s many challenges. I strive to create a compassionate, empathetic, and validating space where individuals feel seen, heard, and supported. I believe that the therapeutic relationship we build together is the foundation for meaningful growth and change. Therapy isn't just for times of crisis—it can be a valuable resource for managing the everyday stressors of work, school, and relationships. In addition to these areas, I also work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, and significant life changes. I am trained in several evidence-based practices, including Prolonged Exposure for PTSD.
