Introduction

I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with adolescents, young adults, and adults impacted by trauma. I’m particularly drawn to this work because I’ve seen how traumatic experiences can continue to shape how people feel and function long after they’ve ended. My approach focuses on helping clients move beyond insight and begin to experience real shifts in how they feel and respond. I integrate evidence-based and experiential approaches, and tailor each session to the individual. My goal is to provide a space that feels safe, affirming, and grounded, while also supporting meaningful and lasting change.
