About

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been working in the profession for over 10 years. My style of therapy combines classic approaches, such as cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, humanistic, motivational interviewing, with body centered philosophies including yoga (completed teacher training in 2007), trauma release exercises, and bioenergetics (completed 2 years of training). The skills I have learned through my education and training's have allowed me to help many individuals who are effected with depression, loss, anxiety, trauma and individuals who are going through a difficult transition.

Whatever brought you here today, I would be honored to help you through it. I believe that you have the ability to feel better and be happy, I would like to help you connect with that ability. Therapy is a unique experience which can help someone make subtle or vast improvements in their life. Making the choice to "show up" is the first and sometimes hardest part. As a therapist, my goal is to help you explore your own thoughts and emotions to understand how they effect your current situation by building your capacity to overcome the challenges you experience. I look forward to joining you on that journey.
