As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I am dedicated to supporting adolescents and adults ages 12 to 45 as you navigate life's challenges. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, or ADHD, I’m here to help you find a path forward that feels manageable and meaningful.
My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and truly heard, without judgment. I believe healing begins with connection, which is why I meet you exactly where you are in your journey. Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more understood, build confidence in yourself, and create lasting, positive change in your life.
My approach to therapy is rooted in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Through these approaches, I help you better manage symptoms, strengthen emotional regulation, and improve your day-to-day functioning. Equally important to me is helping you reconnect with your own strengths and values through a strong emphasis on self-compassion.
Together, we work within a patient-centered, trauma-informed framework that helps you better understand your thoughts, process difficult experiences, and develop effective coping strategies that work for your life. Because no two people are the same, I continuously adapt my style to best serve you, ensuring that every session feels purposeful, supportive, and genuinely yours.
My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by someone who knew the work well: my mom, who is also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Through her guidance and mentorship, I developed a strong foundation in compassionate, patient-centered care early on.
This experience shaped not only my career path but also my dedication to showing up fully for the people I work with, reinforcing my belief in the importance of empathy, connection, and creating a therapeutic space where you feel genuinely supported.
Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy spending time in nature, whether that’s hiking, skiing, or camping. Being outdoors is one of the ways I recharge and stay grounded.
I also have a lifelong passion for dance. I grew up as a competitive dancer and continued as a student athlete on my college dance team. Today, dance remains one of my favorite forms of self-care and self-expression, reminding me of the importance of movement, creativity, and balance in everyday life.
