As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over five years of experience, I provide compassionate, evidence-based care to adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating life’s challenges. My practice integrates trauma-informed care, crisis intervention, and behavioral health management to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel empowered to achieve healing and personal growth.

I value the therapeutic relationship and prioritize collaboration, ensuring every client feels heard, respected, and actively involved in their journey. By fostering trust, open communication, and mutual respect, I help clients build the skills, confidence, and self-awareness needed to face challenges and reach their fullest potential.

My approach blends evidence-based methods such as EMDR, CBT, CPT, ACT, SFBT, DBT-Skills, and relapse prevention, tailored to meet each client’s unique needs. I strive to provide a nonjudgmental space where clients can feel genuinely supported and understood, allowing them to work through past experiences, develop resilience, and move forward with purpose.

With strengths in active listening, creative problem-solving, and advocacy, I am dedicated to helping clients build meaningful change and cultivate healthier, more fulfilling lives. Whether you’re seeking to overcome obstacles, heal from trauma, or develop coping strategies, I am here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
