Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Oregon and earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Portland State University in 2007. I have extensive experience working with individuals navigating symptoms of anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, substance use concerns, grief and loss, chronic illness, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I enjoy supporting clients who are navigating situational stressors as well as those working through long-standing patterns or concerns.
My approach to therapy is person-centered, collaborative, trauma-informed and holistic. I believe each individual is unique, and I strive to create a supportive, empowering space where we can work together to build insight, develop coping skills, and foster healing and growth.
Drawing on years of clinical experience, I tailor each session to meet your specific needs. As a strengths-based and collaborative therapist, I partner with you to identify meaningful goals and support you as you move forward on your life journey.
