Therapist

Hi! I'm Rikki. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with dual master's degrees and over eight years of experience working in community mental health, private practice, and forensic settings. I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, anger management, sexual concerns, identity exploration, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and tailored to each person I work with. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard, challenged when it's helpful, and supported as we work together to better understand what's getting in the way and build practical strategies that fit your life.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I believe therapy and psychiatric care should feel human, not clinical, rushed, or impersonal. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported from the very first conversation. I take time to understand your story, your values, and what you want your life to look like, not just your symptoms.

I bring over a decade of experience working in mental health and addiction, and I use a balanced approach that blends evidence-based treatment with compassion and real connection. I do not believe in one-size-fits-all care. Your treatment is collaborative, flexible, and designed to support long-term growth, not just short-term relief.

Above all, you should know that you will not be treated like a diagnosis. You will be treated like a person.

You deserve more than just getting through the day. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected from yourself, or caught in the same painful patterns no matter how hard you try to change them, you're not alone. You may have learned to survive, but now you're ready to truly heal.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I help people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life's difficult transitions by creating a space where you can finally exhale and show up exactly as you are. Together, we'll help you reconnect with yourself, regulate your nervous system, and build a life that feels more grounded, meaningful, and authentic. Even through video sessions, our work will feel warm, engaging, and deeply collaborative, supporting healing in your mind, body, and spirit.
