About me

I am an independently licensed social work with over 20 years of experience working with children, teens and families. I've worked with clients that have an array of concerns including depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, relationship issues, parenting challenges, and complex trauma.

My therapeutic style is engaging and inviting. I believe all people deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. I use a variety of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive-behavioral, Adlerian theory, Child-Parent Psychotherapy, play therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. I will customize our sessions and treatments plans to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and walk this journey with you.
