About

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in supporting individuals who feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges and are ready to make meaningful changes. My ideal client is someone who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, or life transitions—such as navigating relationships, adjusting to parenthood, balancing work and family, or coping with grief and loss. Many of my clients come to me because they feel stuck, misunderstood, or unsure of their next steps. They want a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore their emotions and experiences, and they are seeking tools to build resilience, clarity, and confidence in themselves My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. Together, we’ll identify patterns that no longer serve you, strengthen your coping skills, and explore healthier ways of relating to yourself and others. I draw from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness strategies, and strengths-based approaches.
