I'm a Licensed Clinical Specialist Social Worker (LSCSW) with a deep commitment to meeting people where they are—whether that's navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or major life transitions like divorce. I've spent years working across community mental health, medical social work, and child welfare, and I've had the privilege of serving diverse populations from Southern California, Kansas, Colorado, and to Africa. My background includes specialized experience supporting youth and young adults, including those with autism and intellectual developmental disabilities. I bring a faith-based therapeutic approach rooted in Christian values, thoughtfully incorporating Scripture for clients who find that meaningful, while fully respecting each person's beliefs. In our work together, I focus on understanding your unique story, values, and upbringing—taking time to explore what love, hope, joy, and purpose mean for you. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and family therapy approaches to help you build coping skills and move through life's adjustments. I'm currently accepting new clients across all ages, from teenagers through elders, and I offer both telehealth and in-person sessions. I work with most major insurance plans and am here to support your journey toward healing and growth.
