There are a multitude of experiences and challenges which bring individuals and families to therapy. I believe you deserve support that is tailored to your strengths and your needs. Starting therapy can be a nerve racking experience and I’m here to offer a supportive, judgment free space for you to address challenges, identify your values, and build on the many strengths you bring with you to this process. I feel honored to be trusted with the pain, struggles, and conflict that people bring to therapy. I look forward to helping you finding the joy, ease and peace that you want to create in your life.
I am an licensed master social worker. I have expertise in children’s mental health, parent support, and burnout. I also have specialized training in crisis counseling. I utilize CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing. I also draw from IFS, play therapy and somatic therapy. I believe in individualizing care based on the what works best for you.
If you feel that this is a good fit for you please contact me to schedule an intake or a free 15 minute consult.
