Welcome! I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with 10+ years experience in the field. I am committed to creating a safe place for clients to explore themselves, their circumstances, and their experiences. Whatever brings you to therapy, whatever “baggage” you carry, whatever “skeletons” are in the closet, please know that you are welcome here. I have experience working with clients age 4+. My approach is solution focused, trauma informed, and client centered. I enjoy creating a relaxed, safe, and authentic therapeutic environment. If you enjoy dark humor, I’m happy to sprinkle some of that in as well.
I have extensive experience with individuals working in emergency services. I am also trained in A-TIP (acute traumatic incident processing). I have a passion for working with Autism and ADHD - especially those affected by late diagnosis. Other interests include: depression, anxiety, chronic health issues, disordered eating, grief/loss, and LGBTQIA issues.
It is incredibly difficult to ask for help and I’m glad you’re here. I look forward to being a part of your unique journey. Please don't hesitate to reach out to discuss how I can be of assistance to you throughout this process. Evening and weekend availability with flexible scheduling.
