I believe in holistic and evidence based care. I support people of all ages who are navigating anxiety and depression, including children, teens, adults, and older adults. My role is to guide, support, and collaborate with you to create a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, beliefs, culture, and preferences. I want you to feel heard, respected, and understood-not reduced to a diagnosis. Together, we can make space for what is difficult and build a path toward steadiness, clarity, and meaningful change, at a pace that feels right for you. You do not need to have answers before reaching out; we can begin where you are.

Therapist

Welcome—I'm glad you're here. Reaching out for support takes courage, and it’s an important first step toward feeling better. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps adults navigate life’s challenges with compassion, collaboration, and practical tools for lasting change. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, or relationship conflict, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore what’s holding you back and discover new ways forward.

My therapeutic style is warm, down-to-earth, and centered on your unique needs. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), strengths-based, and person-centered approaches—blending evidence-based techniques with genuine human connection. Together, we’ll identify patterns that no longer serve you and build on your strengths to create a more balanced, fulfilling life.

I work with adults across all stages of life, including those navigating career changes, caregiving roles, or life transitions in later adulthood. I believe healing and growth are possible at any age.

If you’re ready to start your journey toward greater peace and self-understanding, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Let’s take that next step together.
