Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with birth to 18, young adults, families, and adults. I have a Master's in Human Development and a Master's in Social Work. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, family needs, crisis management, PTSD, and pre & postpartum needs. I have been in the clinical field for 13 years.
I believe the best mental health care begins with trust, compassion, and open communication. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel comfortable sharing your experiences without fear of judgment.
I understand that reaching out for help isn't always easy, and I strive to meet each person where they are. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, mood changes, life transitions, trauma, ADHD, or simply feeling overwhelmed, we'll work together to develop a treatment plan that fits your goals, values, and lifestyle.
I take a collaborative approach to care, combining evidence-based medication management with supportive therapy, education, and practical coping strategies. I want my clients to understand not only what we're treating but why certain treatments may be beneficial, so they feel informed and involved in every decision.
With years of experience in psychiatric care across inpatient and outpatient settings, I've worked with individuals facing a wide range of mental health challenges. I believe healing isn't about being perfect—it's about making meaningful progress, building resilience, and finding balance in everyday life.
My hope is that every client leaves our appointments feeling heard, respected, and supported.
