Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work that is passionate about supporting women, teens, and those who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, family and relationship issues, low self-esteem, and life stressors. Perhaps you who have not felt like yourself or have not found your voice due to everyone else having a say about your life choices. I believe that healing begins in a space where you feel heard, understood, and genuinely supported. With nine years experience and through lived experience, my work focuses on helping you manage those concerns, as I have worked with multiple populations including children, teens, and adults.

I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and a University of Michigan graduate, and my

area of expertise is co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. Over the course of

my career, I have worked with individuals navigating addiction, PTSD, anxiety, depression, and

the complex challenges that arise when these conditions intersect. I believe that healing

happens in a space where you feel genuinely safe and understood, and I am committed to

providing exactly that. I would love to work alongside you as you move toward the life you

deserve.
