Life can feel overwhelming, especially when you are navigating big emotions, transitions, or family stress. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who feel anxious, stuck, or misunderstood. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, engaging space where clients feel seen, heard, and supported as they build confidence, skills, and resilience. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has worked in community mental health, school settings, and in an intensive outpatient program. My experience has given me a deep respect for each person's story and a passion for helping clients find clarity and healing.
Using play therapy, EMDR, and trauma-informed approaches, I help clients process emotions, strengthen coping skills, and heal from difficult experiences. I tailor each session to the individual, whether it’s a child expressing their feelings through play, a teen working through anxiety, or an adult navigating a life transition.
You don’t have to face challenges alone. Together, we’ll create a collaborative space to understand what’s happening and move toward healing and growth. I offer in-person and telehealth sessions. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honored to connect with you.
