Thank you for being here! Do you want to improve your emotional well being or to learn other ways of relating to life stressors, anxiety, depression or addiction? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have nearly a decade of experience supporting adults and specialize in the treatment of substance use and addiction. I am also a certified mindfulness meditation teacher
I bring a holistic and trauma-informed approach to create a therapeutic space that will invite you to embark on a journey to (re)discover your true nature and grow your confidence. My aim is to build a trustworthy relationship with you, from which we can jointly address difficult thoughts, complex emotions, or challenging situations presented in life.
Our work connects with where you are now, and what you need most to deepen your relationship with yourself, to more confidently navigate spaces, and to reduce harm.
