About My Clients

Feeling stuck, like nothing will be able to change to help a situation, or feeling like nobody can understand what you're going through? I've been there too. If you want a space to help make changes or a get through a difficult situation, this is that place. If you've ever felt like you have tried it all but know there has to be another way, I'm here to be that other way. If you're looking for a place to open up and not be judged, then let's work together to get through what feels unchangeable!

My Background and Approach

I am an LCSW who is passionate about building connections, meeting my clients where they are, helping them help themselves, and inspiring hope and empowerment. I have worked in a variety of settings and with a variety of populations. I believe that building genuine therapeutic relationships with my clients allows our sessions to become transformative and our conversations to be honest and effective. Although so many people have felt the same types emotions, I am very aware that no two individuals experience the same thing and if they do, they have experienced in different ways. I focus on making sure each session is tailored for that individual's strengths and goals. I help clients reframe negative judgements, see their struggles and strengths as opportunities and weaknesses, and break through their black & white thinking. I utilize a non-judgmental approach and offer empathy in every situation. I would be honored to work alongside you to help you become the best version of yourself!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I've learned that there is no cookie-cutter for who benefits from therapy and no category of people who will face mental health challenges. I've learned that any person who is willing to give therapy a shot is able to benefit from it. While I don’t know specifically your struggles, I do know what it is like to feel alone, anxious, angry, shameful and sometimes stuck. I've experienced, what feels like, every emotion in its most intense form. And I definitely know what it feels like to feel defeated and lose hope that things can change. Even though we may not have gone through the same experiences, I am able to use my own story to connect with the feelings and obstacles that others face. I found hope in situations that I viewed to be hopeless and now I strive to help others, to help you, find hope in yourself and your own situations. If you are ready to find control and happiness in your life, your relationships, and in yourself, then let's work together!
