Great to meet you!

I'm a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) and Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) with over a decade of experience in mental health and addiction. I’m passionate about helping clients overcome challenges through compassionate, individualized care. My focus is on providing a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood on your recovery journey.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). My approach is client-centered, tailoring treatment plans to meet your unique needs. I work collaboratively with you to address both mental health and substance use challenges, ensuring your goals are aligned with your strengths and values. Together, we’ll build practical strategies for lasting change.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients will gain practical tools to effectively manage challenges, enhance self-awareness, and develop lasting coping strategies that foster long-term growth and recovery. Each session is designed to empower you, providing clear goals and actionable steps that drive sustainable progress. By the end of your journey, the goal is to walk away with a deeper sense of self-compassion and the confidence needed to navigate life’s challenges with resilience and purpose.
