Hello! Congratulations on choosing to seek out therapy. Your choice to make this decision informs me that you are on the right path! I am an LCSW and have been working as a mental health therapist for a few years now. During my experience as a therapist, I have had the pleasure of working with people of various age groups, from different economic backgrounds and so much more. My approach to therapy is very much human-centered and strengths. I believe strongly in the power of our strengths as humans, and I work with my clients to get them to recognize these strengths, no matter how small or insignificant they may seem. I am also solution-focused and goal-oriented, and I utilize a lot of cognitive-behavioral therapeutic approaches when working with my clients.
I am experienced in areas of acute, chronic and complex trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues and personality disorders. My approach is geared towards assisting the client in reaching the goals that they have set for themselves. However, I acknowledge that implementing these goals can be challenging. I will meet you where you are, and work with you to acknowledge and celebrate small victories while working towards bigger ones. Therapy is a joint effort; it requires the commitment and willingness of both parties to attain success; as we define it. I am committed to the wellness of my clients, and I am willing to do my part.

She’s so personally it’s almost like I created a new friend! She understands my needs and makes me feel brand new.

I originally started this process with another therapist and did not feel the connection needed to really get the best out of the program after a few group sessions I decided to trust my gut and switched and even though we only had a few session so far I already feel like this is going to be so much better for me. She really digs down to the underlining issues and I appreciate her attention to detail.
