I am a licensed clinical social worker with 23 years of experience in the field, 15 of which have been in counseling. I assist clients with issues surrounding self-esteem, body image, anxiety, depression and eating disorders. I also assist clients struggling with relationship issues and divorce. I have extensive experience in grief counseling and supporting clients as they process loss. I am passionate about helping others love themselves, take care of their bodies, and find freedom from societal standards!!
I use Cognitive Behavioral therapy and Guided Imagery with a Solution Focused Model. I enjoy working with individuals at all stages of life who are facing crossroads and need a safe place to explore goals and desires.
My professional goal is to provide a safe, supportive place for you to work towards becoming the best version of yourself in each moment. I desire to help you find joy as you journey towards emotional health and wholeness.
