I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker out of California & Vermont. My passion as a therapist is helping my clients navigate anxiety, trauma, and eating disorders with confidence. My clients will gain motivation to take back control of their lives and seek out fulfilling life experiences more centered around their own values.
I am able to bring to my practice my own experiences and history, helping others understand and internalize that their traumas and struggles are not your fault and do not define you!
Please don't hesitate to reach out to determine if we might be a good match or if you have questions about how I can address your specific needs.

When engaging in talk psychotherapy my approach explores mindset and struggles with questions to identify cognitive distortions and better understand how to challenge unhelpful ways of thinking.
