Therapy can be a challenging process, which is why I aim to create a calm and welcoming environment for each and every client, whether that is with clients in individual therapy, couples counseling or group therapy.

I believe that the most important part of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. We will build this relationship as I get to know you, your social environment, your strengths, and your goals. You will get to know me as well, as we walk through this journey together.
As a clinical social worker my overall approach to therapy is personalized, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Theory (CBT) Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Motivational Interviewing, and Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples. You are the only one who knows your truest self, but I can help you find parts that you may have lost along the way. Therapy is about finding yourself and living your best life.
I see clients 18 years old and up.
