I am a social worker who values creating a space of agency and collaboration between myself & my clients. I apply evidence-based behavioral therapy approaches to help teens and adults who are struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression, and low self-esteem. I place a strong emphasis on providing gender/LGBTQ+ affirming, culturally conscious, and sex-positive care. I am committed to creating a safe & inclusive space for clients to be able to show up authentically and feel understood. I help clients to understand and express their thoughts & emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and improve their capacity to cope with challenges.
My approach pulls from a social justice, intersectional, and systemic framework. I aim to empower clients by meeting them where they at on their journey. I strive to maintain a compassionate therapeutic environment that fosters growth and healing.
I am committed to providing clients with practical skills and tools they need to reclaim control and find freedom from anxiety. Whether you are new to therapy or have years of experience with it, I hope I can offer you a place to guide you through making changes in your life.
