“You can’t see inside someone’s heart unless you ask.” These words resonate with me and are the foundation of my practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I pride myself on being the therapist that questions you to work through your experiences, thoughts, and emotions. Seeking to understand begins by asking the questions that influence an open and pure conversation that leads to connection and healing. Through dialogue, psycho-education, and uncovering, you can forge a stronger relationship with yourself, which is the most important one you will ever have. You can find relief from trauma,depression, anxiety, PTSD & loneliness.

Whether this is your first time in therapy, you are looking for a new therapist, or you are just needing some new tools to work through daily life stressors, WELCOME! My empathetic and collaborative approach has helped many in their healing journey and hopefully it can for you too. Healing is an ongoing process, specific to you and your life story. Together we will work to define (or redefine) meaning in your life and how you relate to the world you live in. With the goal of feeling empowered to live a life that makes sense to you.

Having a “Beautiful Life” is something we all strive for, but at times life’s struggles get in the way. I feel honored and grateful to be invited into your heart as we begin the therapeutic process to your happiness. I will offer you a safe, nurturing, and loving environment that encourages a healing place where thoughts, feelings, and worries can be explored. During therapy session we will work together to help you find your true happiness, to trust your judgements with confidence, to manage and challenge limiting thoughts and beliefs, as you gain the skills and confidence to create the life you deserve and have dreamed of.

How do you know if your heart wound is controlling you? Do you want to stop hurting yourself and others? Are you feeling stuck?
