As a Licensed Master Social Worker, I am passionate about creating a warm and safe environment without judgment for clients to express themselves and share their stories. Whether you are a child, a teenager, or an adult struggling with life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship issues, and/or family dynamics, we will work together toward establishing your goals and equipping you with coping skills for your daily life. No matter what you are coming to therapy for, know that you are not alone. When working with the LGBTQ+ community, I strive to provide affirmative therapy for individuals to explore their identities and navigate the unique challenges they may face. From exploring gender identity, navigating the coming out processes, or addressing discrimination and trauma, I am committed to providing culturally competent care that celebrates the client's authentic self. I believe in a client-centered and mindfulness-based approach to therapy. I am dedicated to decreasing the stigma surrounding mental health and seeking therapy. The main therapeutic interventions I utilize include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Play Therapy. I also have experience with crisis management and safety planning.
