As a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, heal from past wounds, and build resilience. I specialize in supporting clients facing a wide range of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, PTSD, and trauma. I am also welcoming clients coping with perinatal mental health issues by providing essential guidance and evidence-based care for individuals and families navigating the profound transitions, stressors, and emotional challenges of preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum periods.

Recognizing that life and workplace stressors can deeply impact overall well-being, I partner with clients to provide practical, compassionate, and solution-focused therapy. I use an integrative approach tailored to each person’s needs, blending evidence-based interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Through these modalities, I help clients restructure unhelpful thought patterns, improve emotional regulation, and enhance overall quality of life.

I believe that true healing happens within a safe, authentic, and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship. I consider it an absolute privilege to walk alongside clients on their wellness journeys, collaborating closely to foster deep self-awareness, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and create lasting, positive changes in both their personal and professional lives.
