I am a compassionate LCSW dedicated to providing safety-focused, trauma-informed care for those navigating anxiety and depression. I view these symptoms not as pathologies, but as adaptive survival responses. My practice prioritizes client agency and nervous system regulation, integrating evidence-based tools such as CBT and Strengths-Based theory. I am committed to helping individuals move from a state of survival into empowered, sustainable recovery. Together, we will create a grounded, non-judgmental space where you can reconnect with your inherent resilience and reclaim your life.
Our first session is about building a foundation of safety and predictability. We will start by discussing your goals and what you hope to gain from therapy, ensuring you feel in control of the pace. I’ll introduce the Window of Tolerance to help us understand how your nervous system currently responds to stress.
Rather than diving into painful memories immediately, we focus on establishing a shared language and identifying immediate grounding tools. My priority is ensuring you feel seen, heard, and empowered to lead your healing journey.

My ideal clients are individuals navigating the heavy weight of trauma, anxiety, or depression who feel "stuck" in survival mode. They may experience persistent hypervigilance, emotional numbing, or a sense of disconnection from themselves.
