My work with patients focuses on interpersonal connections as well as the mind-body connection.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 23 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, children, and teens. I utilize cognitive skills(CBT), dialectical behavior skills (DBT), mindfulness practices (MCBT), and other interpersonal therapy skills to help clients develop strategies to better regulate emotions, tolerate and work through emotional distress, confront and change faulty thinking patterns, develop more functional boundaries and communication patterns to have more effective relationships, and work through loss, abuse, and other traumas by increasing their coping strategies.

You may find yourself experiencing a sense of being stuck and unable to make progress due to unresolved past issues. It can feel daunting to know where to start when it comes to dealing with these issues and finding a path forward.

Together, we can work towards understanding your specific goals and creating a tailored plan to help you achieve them.

Is it reduced anxiety, increased self-esteem, or socializing again? I am here to meet you on your journey and help you to feel empowered and supported. Every person has a different story to tell. The counseling process should reflect an individuals' journey.

Change is an inevitable part of life and it can be difficult, especially if the change is unexpected or unwanted, like the end of a relationship or being let go from a job.

Humans are creatures of habit & we desire comfort. However, this also means that when we feel safe, even if it defies rationality, we continue to stay stuck in patterns that can actually be damaging to our spirits and cause a great deal of pain & turmoil in our lives. Counseling can be a wonderful place for initiating change & facilitating growth. This is a place where taking risks feels not only necessary, but essential. This is a place where the status quo is no longer acceptable. Together, we can explore places of pain and help you harness your strengths and values to help you create more meaningful connections and healing.

It’s true that the path of healing from misery and hopelessness can be long and hard. The joy and peace that can be found along the way are worth the sweat and tears!
