About
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to providing compassionate, trauma-informed care. I believe deeply in your capacity to heal and grow, and I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll create a safe, uplifting space where you can feel grounded, supported, and empowered. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT, Motivational Interviewing, ARC, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I tailor each session to your needs, helping you build insight, develop effective tools, and create meaningful, lasting change. I support adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. With experience serving diverse and multicultural communities, my focus is on helping you feel seen, valued, and supported as you move toward greater hope, clarity, and emotional well-being. My communication style is warm, calm, and approachable. I engage with empathy, openness, and genuine curiosity, creating a space where you can speak freely and feel supported. Sessions are encouraging and reflective, and I often use gentle, thoughtful humor to make you feel comfortable and make the work feel a little lighter when needed.
