I’m a licensed Clinical Social Worker, proud boy mom, and passionate advocate for growth and healing. With over a decade of experience, I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, and major life transitions using evidence-based approaches like CBT and mindfulness. My practice is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and a deep belief that everyone deserves a safe space to grow into their best self. My approach Working with me feels like having a compassionate teammate who’s fully invested in your growth. I blend evidence-based practices like CBT and mindfulness with a warm, down-to-earth style that helps you feel safe, seen, and empowered. We’ll explore what’s holding you back, build practical tools for change, and celebrate every step forward—no matter how small. Therapy with me isn’t just about coping; it’s about thriving. My focus If you're an adult navigating anxiety, depression, or a major life transition—especially while juggling work, family, or caregiving roles—you're exactly who I love to support. My ideal clients are often the ones who’ve been strong for everyone else and are finally ready to prioritize their own healing. Together, we’ll create a space where you can exhale, reflect, and rebuild. I use practical, evidence-based tools like CBT and mindfulness to help you manage stress, shift unhelpful patterns, and reconnect with your sense of purpose. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change, I’m here to walk beside you with compassion, clarity, and a touch of humor to keep it real. My communication style In sessions with me, you can expect a tone that’s warm, grounded, and gently empowering. I communicate with clarity and compassion—always listening deeply, asking thoughtful questions, and offering honest reflections without judgment. Whether we’re unpacking something heavy or celebrating a breakthrough, I bring a steady presence and a touch of humor to help you feel safe and supported.
