Are you feeling "stuck," indecisive, depressed, or anxious? We all face life difficulties that limit our skills and tools for managing our emotions, reducing symptoms, building relationships, and having a sense of self-worth. Understanding, learning what is happening in your brain, and practicing skills and coping mechanisms are vital to living a worthwhile life. I have spent the last few years assisting clients, building their toolbox, understanding the emotional system, and improving their lives.
As a clinical social worker, I can support you in your journey of feeling better and getting control of your life back. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy (TF-CBT) are some modalities to address the concerns. Individual, family, and group therapy are available as needed.
I will provide support, active listening, and validation in every meeting. The therapy sessions are a safe space, free of judgment and full of respect and encouragement, where the clients can be themselves. I see the therapeutic relationship as a team, where you are an expert in your life. Email me to schedule a 15-minute consultation call today.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, or overall life challenges. During the initial sessions, we explore the challenges and collaborate to create a treatment plan to address them in a way that empowers you and makes you feel in control. Consistency and willingness are the keys for those clients who see a gradual lifting of symptoms.

I often use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in my practice. During the first sessions, we will explore what brought you to Therapy and then decided the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With DBT, we will learn how to be mindful, increase interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation and crisis skills.
