With 8 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and specialized training in EMDR therapy, I help adolescents and adults who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, emotional dysregulation, and life transitions. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, or disconnected from themselves and others. My approach is compassionate, direct, and goal-oriented, helping clients process difficult experiences, build healthy coping skills, improve relationships, and regain confidence so they can move forward with greater balance, clarity, and emotional wellness.
I provide a compassionate, supportive space where clients can safely process anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, and emotional challenges. Using EMDR, CBT, and person-centered therapy, I help clients build coping skills, improve self-awareness and communication, and create meaningful, lasting change toward emotional wellness.
Healing can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to face it alone. Together, we will build on your strengths, develop healthy coping skills, and work toward lasting emotional wellness. I provide a supportive, compassionate space to help you navigate anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life stressors with greater confidence and clarity.
