I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families. My work is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based approaches, and I believe deeply in each person’s capacity to heal, grow, and thrive. I also collaborate with primary care physicians and psychiatrists when needed to ensure you receive integrated care.
I specialize in life transitions, relationship shifts, women’s issues, and mood disorders. Using CBT, problem-solving strategies, and developmental insight, I help clients build resilience, find direction, and improve emotional well-being. I meet people where they are and walk with them toward lasting change.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or major life changes, I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, identify practical tools, and create a clear path forward.
