About My Clients

I help clients navigate challenges related to anxiety, depression, bipolar, borderline, obsessions, compulsions, sexuality, trauma, and relationships. Here, you'll find a safe space where you never have to feel judged for who you are. My clients find relief from obsessive-compulsive symptoms, strengthen emotional regulation and relationships within personality disorders, and build real coping strategies for symptoms of anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma.

My Background and Approach

As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I provide evidence-based treatment options to build a tailored plan that meets your unique goals and helps you move forward. You'll learn skills to quiet unwanted thoughts, manage intense emotions, build healthier relationships, and figure out why it's happening in the first place. My background in organizational psychology also equips me to help individuals navigate workplace challenges, pursue new job opportunities, and avoid or recover from burnout.

Why I am a Good Fit for You

I tailor therapy to you. We'll start by exploring what brought you in, create treatment goals together, and use brief questionnaires to guide and track progress. I blend proven methods based on your symptoms and life circumstances, keeping sessions focused on what matters most to you, and offer insight and coping strategies to help you move forward.
