The first step in healing is finding a safe environment to seek support. You have found that safe place! I am here to support you through your journey in achieving balance through connecting your body, mind, heart, and spirit. I specialize in working with people who are experiencing depression and anxiety. I also have specialized training to work with clients who have experienced any kind of trauma. Other areas of expertise includes addiction and grief, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy and Trauma Focused Behavioral Therapy.

As an LCSW, I provide a strength based individualized approach and work with individuals, couples or families. In therapy you have an opportunity to better understand who you are, what you want for yourself, and from your relationships.
