I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who values creating a space where clients can show up exactly as they are. I believe therapy is both a refuge and a process of rediscovery—a space to pause, make meaning, and reconnect with yourself. My clients often describe me as warm, intuitive, and grounded, yet also honest and direct when it’s time to challenge old narratives that no longer serve them.

My background spans over a decade in clinical social work, program leadership, and supervision. These experiences allow me to bring both depth and practicality to therapy—helping clients integrate emotional insight with real-world change. I’m especially drawn to supporting adults navigating trauma recovery, burnout, major transitions, and patterns of self-silencing who are ready to reclaim their voice and balance.
