I am a Licensed Master of Social Work (LMSW) who supports adults, teens, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional dysregulation, and major life transitions. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that healing happens when we feel understood and safe enough to explore our inner experiences.
I use evidence-based practices such as CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, DBT skills, and mindfulness while integrating creative modalities when they’re helpful. When working with younger clients or adults who connect through expressive work, I incorporate art, narrative techniques, and experiential tools to make difficult emotions easier to process.
I specialize in helping clients make sense of overwhelming events, break unhelpful patterns, and strengthen emotional regulation. My approach is culturally responsive and strengths-based, tailored to each person’s values, background, and goals.
Clients often describe me as empathetic, grounded, and easy to talk to. In our sessions, you can expect a balance of emotional support, practical skills, and thoughtful insight. My goal is to help you feel more confident, connected, and equipped to move forward.
If you’re looking for a therapist who blends structure with creativity and clinical skill with warmth, I’d be honored to work with you.

i’m a passionate therapist with over a decade of clinical experience. Over the years, I’ve guided many clients through difficult seasons of life—helping them find relief from relentless anxiety, intrusive thoughts, fears about their health, or the heaviness of depression or past trauma. My approach is warm, compassionate, and down to earth, with a strong focus on creating a safe, trusting relationship where real healing and change can happen. I specialize in anxiety disorders, OCD, and depression. I also help clients struggling with low self-esteem, anger, divorce, grief, career stress, or just feeling stuck or dissatisfied in life.
I draw from evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including CBT, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychodynamic approaches. Together, we’ll work to quiet worries, manage emotions, improve self-esteem, and heal old wounds while reconnecting with a stronger, more confident sense of self.
Therapy is a place where you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, past trauma, or feelings of shame and disconnection, I provide a warm, supportive space to help you find balance and lasting change. I’d be honored to support you on your journey.

I have been working as an LCSW for over forty years and have an Advanced Degree in Psychotherapy. I have worked in different settings always with the goal of meeting my clients’ needs.
Life is always a challenge and often presents us with many feelings, sometimes overwhelming.
I have experience in treating people who suffer from Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, and Addiction, among others. I am an insightful listener and strongly believe in working with people in order to attain their goals and live a more contented life. It is never too late to grow and change.
In my practice, I incorporate a range of therapeutic modalities to cater to the unique needs of each individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a cornerstone of my approach, where I help clients identify and challenge distorted thought patterns and behaviors to bring about positive change. Integrative/Holistic Therapy allows me to consider the whole person — body, mind, and spirit — in the healing process, recognizing the interconnection of these elements in overall well-being.
Solutions Focused Therapy is another method I employ, which is particularly effective for clients seeking to address specific problems or goals. This approach focuses on what clients want to achieve through therapy, rather than on the problems that brought them to therapy. Lastly, Client/Patient Centered Therapy is integral to my practice. This approach is based on the understanding that each individual is an expert on their own life and is capable of finding their own solutions when provided with a supportive and non-judgmental therapeutic environment.
