Accepting new clients now. Welcome! I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with 15+ years of experience. I know that starting therapy can feel tough, especially talking to someone you don't know about things that make you uncomfortable, angry, or embarrassed. My style is more conversational than formal, and I maintain a nonjudgmental process that is introspective.

My ideal client is somebody who embraces and trusts the process and is willing to share their experiences. Challenges can range based on the support they are seeking. Their needs can be anything from support, stabilization, resources for community-based support, and building a quality supportive network. Their goals are to increase autonomy and self-advocacy with the desire to have more good days and recover to be the best version of themselves.

I'm not sure I believe in an Ideal client; I think all clients are Ideal, no matter their life circumstances. Life is like a rollercoaster, and when you're going down, you may need someone to be there and help talk you through it. However, If I had to choose, it would be a client having difficulty with self-esteem, self-worth, and depressive symptoms and needing additional assistance building coping skills but expressing readiness to change.

Young adulthood can be exhausting, between societal and peer pressures, balancing school, work, and social life, and managing family expectations.

I strive to help my clients to better cope with and recognize emotions; identify connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; and improve relationships in order to live a more peaceful, enjoyable, and meaningful life.
