I am a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with a certificate in Interpersonal Violence and Trauma (C-IVT), providing therapy to children, adolescents, and adults. My areas of interest and expertise include working with individuals impacted by trauma, abuse, anxiety, and life transitions. I am especially passionate about supporting survivors of interpersonal violence in reclaiming their sense of safety, voice, and self.

My approach is trauma-informed, client-centered, and grounded in compassion. I integrate evidence-based practices while tailoring each session to meet your unique needs and goals. For those who desire it, I offer a Christian perspective that incorporates faith into the healing process, while always respecting and welcoming clients of all backgrounds and belief systems.

I have been recognized for my dedication to creating a safe and supportive therapeutic environment, where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered. I believe therapy is a powerful space for growth and transformation—one where individuals can process their experiences, develop healthier coping strategies, and build a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

Seeking support is not always easy, but it is a courageous first step. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering guidance, understanding, and practical tools as you move toward healing and wholeness.
