My approach to care:

Here to Help You Heal 

I am a licensed social worker specializing in anxiety, depression, life transitions, women’s health, self-esteem struggles, identity issues, stress management, substance use, and trauma for adults across the life span. I am especially passionate about helping those who are looking for support with perinatal mental health and motherhood.  

As your therapist, I take a holistic and integrated approach to mental health that is collaborative, patient-centered, and affirming. I work from a strengths-based perspective, incorporating humor and Mindfulness therapies into our sessions, co-creating a therapeutic relationship grounded in patience, empathy, understanding, and empowerment. At all times, I meet you where you’re at in your healing journey, while providing you with the support to get to where you want to be.  

My Approach to Care 

I am deeply committed to facilitating healing by working together to reinforce your connection to yourself, others, and the world around you—while always honoring who you are, your strengths, and your life story. My style is flexible and largely integrative, drawing upon diverse approaches to therapy, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Within this, I tailor my approach to work with your unique goals, experiences, and challenges.  

A Journey into Exceptional Patient Care 

I have always held a deep passion for working with others and supporting them in achieving their goals and aspirations. The therapeutic space is a powerful and important environment for growth and understanding our innate strengths, and I look forward to sharing that space with you to explore them and collaborate on how to reach your goals.  

Personal Interests 

I enjoy a wide range of hobbies when I’m not in the office, including fitness and travel. You’ll often find me hiking and camping, building my photography skills, and baking delicious treats.
