Introduction

I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker with over 18 years of experience working with individuals and families navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I offer both in-person and telehealth therapy to provide flexible, accessible support for those seeking help. My work focuses on helping people understand how past experiences shape present emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I have extensive experience supporting clients through trauma recovery, couples and relationship concerns, anxiety, and periods of significant life change. I believe therapy should empower people to move beyond simply coping and toward meaningful healing. My approach is collaborative and focused on helping clients recognize patterns, develop practical tools, and build resilience. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where individuals and families can speak openly and work toward lasting change.
