About

I have been a professional social worker for over 10 years and have worked extensively in the field of co-occurring substance abuse and mental health disorders. I am trained to address issues including PTSD, trauma, mood disorders, and perinatal mental health issues. I offer an empathic, strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe in meeting you where you are at and helping you achieve your stated goals. I often utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, and motivational interviewing techniques and tailor my approach to each individual client. Reaching out for help can be scary. This is the first step towards a happier, healthier you!
