Hello and welcome! I'm thrilled to be considered as part of your wellbeing journey. I'm a LCSW with over 3 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. Prior to becoming a clinician, I worked for many years in the early childhood education field and as a counselor for teens in a residential setting. I have graduate degrees in both human and social services (2019) and social work (2021). Presently, I'm working on my PhD in social work at Walden University. I'm passionate about the benefits of therapy and the positive difference a caring relationship with a therapist can bring.
I greatly enjoy working with both youth and adults who may need support with anxiety, trauma, depression, and improving self-esteem. I have a passion for working with people who may be needing support to develop a peaceful relationship with food, body image, and movement. I also work with couples and support parenting challenges.
I believe that my strengths as a provider include warmth, compassion, a genuine interest in connecting with clients, and a sense of humor. Therapy can be effective and beneficial without being stuffy or overly clinical!
