I am a licensed clinical social worker in Indiana and have been in the field for 11 years. I have experience in helping clients with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, depression, shame, and self-acceptance. I believe in treating everyone with respect, dignity, sensitivity, and compassion. I do not take a one size fits all approach to therapy, and instead individualize treatment for the client and their needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes an incredible amount of courage. I am here to support you in that process.
