For many of us, one of the hardest things to do is to ask for help. Congratulations! You are taking the first step by considering therapy. Now, more than ever, people need assistance due to the stressors of everyday life. It can be overwhelming to try to balance family, career, and relationships. Or maybe you have had a recent life experience which is causing you to seek help. Sometimes people are simply looking to gain more self-awareness and to grow emotionally. Whatever your reason, therapy can help.

I am a Clinical Social Worker who has provided counseling to individuals since 2011. My practice approach is to start where you are in your life. I will compassionately listen, help you gain insight and develop tools to cope with life's challenges. I love working with clients who are going through life transitions such as leaving home, going to college, accepting a new job, getting married or having a new baby.
