As a board‐certified clinical social worker and psychotherapist with over 16 years of experience, I believe that prioritizing mental health is essential for long‐term wellness. Anxiety can show up in many ways — excessive worry, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, panic attacks, digestive issues, trouble sleeping, irritability, and tension in relationships are all possibly signs.

I’ve spent years helping people understand these symptoms, make sense of how they’re connected, and learn effective strategies to reduce distress and regain control. If you’re experiencing any of these challenges, I would love to help you build clarity, confidence, and a path forward.

I am unable to take new clients at this time. Existing clients, please reach out to me directly for any scheduling needs. Thank you!
