A compassionate Licensed Social Worker who has spent her career in mental health working with children, teens, and adults to achieve their journey to wellness. I specialize in trauma therapy, relationship issues, ADHD, Anger Management, and Client Focus.

As a therapist, my role has allowed me to come alongside my clients and help them to see the clearest path for their life. I will work to empower you to have your own voice. To help you feel validated, I will use my extraordinary active listening skills to help you to feel safe and supported. I hope to respectfully challenge you to be the best version of yourself.

I look to become mindful of all aspects of your identity by offering you the best tools to do the work. I use person centered approach therapy, incorporating your thoughts and feelings into the session so that you feel encouraged, autonomous, and empowered in your life’s journey.
