I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience working with adults facing mental health concerns, substance use disorders, and the complicated overlap between the two. Much of my career has been spent in crisis stabilization, residential treatment, PHP, and IOP, supporting clients during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. That experience has shaped how I show up in the therapy room: grounded, direct, and deeply respectful of how hard change can be.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or substance use challenges begin affecting your relationships, daily functioning, and overall well-being. You may feel emotionally exhausted, disconnected from yourself, struggling to cope with painful experiences, or unsure how to move forward. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, substance use concerns, stress management challenges, ADHD, anger management issues, cultural and ethnic identity concerns, and major life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve them or overwhelmed by life's demands. Together, we'll create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can openly explore your experiences, identify your strengths, and develop healthier ways of coping. My goal is to help you gain insight, build resilience, and create meaningful changes that support healing, emotional wellness, and long-term personal growth.
