I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. I enjoy working with clients to improve communication and emotional intelligence, set and reach life goals, process and move through life’s setbacks and traumas, and work through feelings of depression, anxiety, guilt, shame, grief, loss, and stress. I am accepting new patients.
I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, DBT Skills Systems, and more. I have thorough knowledge of 12-step groups and the child welfare system. I seek to provide a safe and serene environment for all. I believe all people are worthy of respect and dignity. I am LGBTQ+ friendly and strive to provide culturally competent care to all clients.
Life can be difficult and overwhelming and it does not come with an instruction manual. If you are struggling with living life on life’s terms, dealing with trauma, having relationship or communication issues, or you're just looking for someone to be on your side as you move into the next chapter of your life, I would love to work with you.
