Your Story. Your Purpose. Your Identity. Healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about uncovering who you've always been. Life has a way of shaping us. Painful experiences, trauma, loss, relationships, and fear can leave us carrying beliefs and protective patterns that once helped us survive, but now no longer serve us. Together, we'll explore your story, heal unresolved wounds, challenge limiting beliefs, and reconnect with the authentic identity that's been there all along.

Hello! I have over 25 years of experience walking alongside individuals through both challenging and transformative moments. I believe people heal best when they feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported, and I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients can safely explore their emotions, experiences, and personal growth without judgment.

I help individuals build resilience, expand their capacity to tolerate distress, and strengthen emotional regulation skills that support long-term well-being. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals. I believe meaningful change happens over time, and I work to support clients in growing at a pace that feels both safe and empowering.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

Therapist

Therapy with me is a space where you can be honest about what is happening in your life without feeling judged or expected to have everything figured out before you schedule your first session. I have experience working with individuals and families during some of the most difficult periods of their lives. Those experiences have taught me that people are often doing the best they can with the tools, experiences, and circumstances they have at the time. I believe therapy should be collaborative. I am not here to tell you how you should feel or simply give you advice. I want to understand your experiences, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and help you develop practical ways to cope, communicate, set boundaries, process difficult experiences, and move forward. I also believe that progress does not always look like feeling better immediately. Sometimes progress is understanding why you respond the way you do, recognizing a pattern, becoming more comfortable setting a boundary, learning to tolerate an uncomfortable emotion, or finally addressing something you have been avoiding. You do not have to come to therapy with a perfectly defined goal. We can figure that out together.
