Accepting new clients. Feeling stuck in your thoughts? Maybe you have trouble finding joy in day-to-day life or you find yourself spending more time worrying than not. In my work, I help people understand their symptoms, learn what might have gotten them here, and help them find a path to feeling better. I do this by using my knowledge of the brain and body to empower people to build self compassion, change their thought and behavior patterns, and build a balanced life.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who has been practicing since 2014. I combine Trauma-Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Sensorimotor psychotherapy (a somatic based therapy) to support people impacted by life transitions, depression, anxiety, effects of past trauma, and challenges within interpersonal relationships.
One of the hardest parts of therapy is finding a therapist. The next is reaching out to them and starting the process. It takes bravery, trust, & vulnerability. I honor the leap of faith that it takes to even contact me AND I know that it can lead to change and healing. I invite you to take that leap as the next step on your journey toward mental wellness.
