About My Clients

I work best with people ready for change and wanting real results. My clients are often professionals, caregivers, LGBTQIA+, or grieving the loss of a beloved pet. I use evidence-based practices to help you build insight, set boundaries, and create lasting change so you can live in alignment with who you truly are.

My Background and Approach

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience supporting people through healing, growth, and meaningful change. I’ve worked across clinical settings and leadership roles, giving me a deep understanding of how systems affect mental health and how to create results that last. I specialize in grief and loss (including pet loss), depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, identity development, life transitions, and LGBTQIA-affirming care. I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and mindfulness, all tailored to your goals. I'm direct, compassionate, and grounded in the belief that therapy should lead to insight, action, and transformation. My work centers your voice, your pace, and your power so you can feel more aligned, more balanced, and more like yourself.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I show up to this work as a whole person who values justice, authenticity, and compassion. I'm a proud member of the LGBTQ community and committed to creating affirming, inclusive spaces where people can be fully themselves. I care deeply about animal welfare and support ethical rescue, adoption, and care efforts. I also honor all forms of spirituality and non-spiritual worldviews. Whether your healing is rooted in faith, nature, ritual, or none of the above, I will meet you with respect and openness. I believe therapy should reflect the full spectrum of who you are—your values, your experiences, and the causes you care about. My goal is to support your growth in ways that are grounded, personalized, and liberating.
