my approach:

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and able to show up as your authentic self. My approach is warm, direct, collaborative, and grounded in the understanding that you are the expert on your own life. I help clients process their experiences, gain clarity about their thoughts and emotions, recognize patterns, and develop practical tools for healing and meaningful change.

thoughts for new clients:

Beginning therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially when you are unsure where to start or have spent much of your life handling things on your own. You do not need to have everything figured out before coming to therapy. We can begin with where you are.

ABOUT ME:

I am a Licensed Social Worker specializing in working with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. I also have extensive experience supporting individuals and families affected by violence, crisis, and other complex or overwhelming life experiences.

In addition to my work as a therapist, I work in hospital-based violence intervention and recovery, where I provide crisis support, case management, training, and technical assistance. My professional experiences have strengthened my commitment to helping people feel safe, regain a sense of control, and recognize their capacity to heal and move forward.

I earned my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work, Policy, and Practice. I integrate trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered practices into my work. Because no single therapeutic approach is right for everyone, I collaborate with each client to identify the methods and strategies that best support their individual needs and goals.
