Hello,

It's a pleasure to meet you.

As a social worker I believe prioritizing mental health is key to an individual's ability to live a productive life. We all need support at some point in our lives, so thank you for taking the first step on the road to empowerment. I have provided individual and group therapy to adults for the past eight years.

As someone who has undergone her own adversities, I can sincerely say that I know how elusive achieving change and growth can be, but I also know that change is possible. Navigating through the difficulties and stressors that life inevitably brings us can be challenging and difficult to do alone, which is why I am a firm believer that healing begins the moment we feel heard. I have worked in mental health clinics, inpatient psychiatric settings and group practice settings, but have found that I excel in private practice where I have the ability to offer one on one, individualized psychotherapy.
