About me

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Kentucky, I bring 17 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional times and experiences. My practice centers on empowering clients, particularly those in the LGBTQ+ community, young adults, and individuals navigating intersectional identities.

My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in understanding the nuanced challenges of depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal transformation. I specialize in helping clients develop coping strategies, improve communication skills, and cultivate profound self-compassion.

With expertise in trauma-informed care and a commitment to creating inclusive, affirming spaces, I support clients through mood disorders, sexuality exploration, women's issues, and life transitions. My work is guided by a profound belief in each person's inherent strength and capacity for growth.

I approach therapy as a collaborative journey, honoring each client's unique experiences and supporting their path toward emotional wellness and self-discovery.
