Availability starting October 2026. Healing from trauma and managing life's heavy burdens is a courageous step toward reclaiming your well-being. As an LICSW, I specialize in trauma-informed care, helping individuals—including first responders—process difficult experiences and stress. I use a strengths-based approach to help you harness your existing resilience. Whether you are navigating the aftermath of a critical incident, struggling to cope with daily life, or seeking to repair strained family relationships, I am here to support your journey toward lasting healing. Reach out via inquiry on website for a consultation
I have experience working with children and adults in a variety of settings. I also have specific training in how trauma impacts individuals and use this knowledge in my practice. I utilize solution focused and cognitive behavioral therapy models while helping you improve yourself.
I am currently seeing patients using Telemedicine (video sessions) with some limited in person appointments
