As a compassionate mental health therapist, I find it important to focus on empowerment, understanding emotions, and overcoming obstacles throughout life’s journey. I have experience with trauma focused care, adjustment to change, and stress management through holistic approaches. I am a clinically licensed social worker with 6 years of higher education, past experience as a family and youth advocate, a direct care worker for children’s behavioral health, and 4 years working with adults seeking mental health support. Remember, you are not alone and you matter!

I am a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner with six years of experience. My degree includes DNP and MSN.

The therapy services I have provided include working with the mentally ill, dual diagnosed, DDD population, ER assessments, inpatient, outpatient, partial care, RTC level of care, and incarcerated individuals.

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.

I've been a Social Worker since 2nd grade-always first in line to give a hug, support friends, and share snacks. In college, I took "Intro to Social Work", and I've never looked back. My career officially started in Addictions, and with my post-graduate studies in Structural Family Therapy, I've honed in my therapeutic skills. I've worked in a variety of settings, most recently as a Veterinary Social Worker. Logic, humor, and animals (preferably dogs!) are the cornerstone tools of my work.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist, my passion lies with helping you live your best life. My training as a solution-focused psychotherapist allows me to honor your inner strength and resilience as we work together to navigate life's twists and turns.

I have a special passion for providing psychotherapy to those who work in healthcare professions. I have extensive experience in working with healthcare providers and have specialized in treating burnout, moral injury, compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma.

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.

Congratulations on taking the first step to address your mental health . With years of experience in the mental health field I can help you gain insight for lasting change.
