About Me
My Background:
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and psychotherapist with a primary focus on women and adolescent mental health. For 15+ years, I’ve supported adults and adolescents coping with anxiety, relationships, life transitions, self-confidence, ADHD, and academic/professional pressures. I work from a psychodynamic and relational framework, while integrating evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). My approach is guided by compassion, with the understanding that meaningful change and healing unfold when we feel fully seen, heard, and supported.
I am passionate about helping women and teens realize their fullest potential and step into the most authentic version of themselves. I believe therapy is most effective when it’s personalized, so I meet each client with curiosity and attunement to their unique needs and circumstances. Together, through meaningful self-discovery and unconditional support, you’ll gain deeper insight into your past and present, develop coping strategies aligned with your goals, and experience a renewed sense of clarity and hope.
Working Together:
Growth and healing are best supported in a therapeutic space that is open, nonjudgmental, supportive, and grounded in compassion. Within this framework, my intention is to help identify what matters to you most and take steps toward creating the life you desire.
My therapeutic style is warm, engaged, compassionate, and intuitive. I care greatly about the individuals I work with and consider it a privilege to support them in the therapy process. In our work you'll find that I'm empathic, curious, and attentive. I balance this with an interactive approach to psychotherapy. As an active therapist, you'll discover that I am deeply motivated to help you achieve a meaningful and fulfilling life.
I believe the human spirit is incredibly strong, resilient, and capable of achieving personal growth and healing with both the right support and focus. Psychotherapy can provide an opportunity to understand yourself more fully and make lasting changes in your life.

Psychotherapy for Adults and Adolescents
Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to explore patterns in how we think, feel, relate to others, and respond to our experiences. This process can deepen understanding of both longstanding patterns and present-day concerns.
Areas commonly addressed in therapy include anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, life transitions, adhd and learning differences, and academic or professional stress.
