I am a licensed clinical social worker, with a background in special education within the school systems. Throughout my journey, I developed a passion for helping teenagers and adults find their authentic selves in what can be a sometimes unpredictable and frustrating life. My hope within our session is for you to feel empowered, heard, validated, and comfortable as YOU. I offer adult/teen therapy. I can meet you in person or online. I specialize in talk therapy, and use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques. In our sessions, we will do a lot of processing, connecting the “dots”, and identifying stressors, but also expect some laughs, lighthearted banter, and a check in about the important things to you. I believe that achieving success in therapy doesn't always have to be heavy. My goal is for you to feel that this space is yours. I have experience in many diagnoses, including anxiety and depression, and have a passion for helping individuals with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). School and home frustrations can feel like a lot, my goal is to always meet you where you are at, and help guide you on the path to feeling like your problems can be solved.
