I am a licensed specialist clinical social worker (LSCSW) with 30 years of experience in mental health and child welfare. I work with individuals and families of diverse backgrounds and all ages in both rural and urban communities. My specialties include trauma, loss and grief, early childhood mental health, child abuse and neglect, family relationships, and foster care and adoption.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from the University of Kansas. My approach is strengths-based and trauma-informed, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, and family systems therapy. I help clients understand how trauma can affect their sense of self and relationships while building healthier coping strategies.
Seeking therapy is a courageous first step toward change. I strive to create a supportive, collaborative space where you feel heard and understood as we work together toward healing, personal growth, and the life you want to build. When you are ready, I look forward to taking the first step together.
