About

I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent my entire career working to understand why mental health is just as important as our physical and spiritual health. I enjoy working directly with a wide range of client populations, ages 14 -65+ years old. I am particularly interested in working with clients struggling with post- traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression, and societal related stressors. I offer a safe, non-judgmental environment to help client’s process underlying feeling, emotions, and thoughts in order to minimize stress, mobilize coping skills, and access social resources.

I am an eclectic therapist interested in having tough conversation with clients that facilitate sustainable life-style changes that improve the clients overall quality of life. I utilize traditional and non-traditional therapeutic interventions to create an individualized plan to help clients re-establish control.

Life's obstacles can be difficult to navigate but with the right psycho-social support everyone has the ability to be resilient. My goal is to offer a therapeutic relationship that provides emotional and psychological support necessary to manage stressful life events
