Life can be challenging, and sometimes we all need a supportive space to process our experiences, work through difficulties, and discover new ways to move forward. As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with New Patterns Therapy, I am passionate about helping individuals of all ages and abilities feel understood, supported, and empowered. I have experience working with children, teens, adults, and older adults facing a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, behavioral concerns, and relationship difficulties. Our time will focus on your unique needs.
I take a holistic, person-centered approach to therapy, which means I see you as more than a diagnosis or a set of challenges. I believe that your experiences, relationships, strengths, values, and goals all play an important role in your well-being. My goal is to create a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself.
I view therapy as a partnership and together we can explore patterns that may be holding you back, develop practical coping skills, and work towards meaningful changes that support your well-being and growth. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. I look forward to joining you on your journey!
