CLINICIAN,

THERAPIST

MY PRACTICE

As a clinical social worker, I recognize the expertise you bring to the table when you step into our sessions. I rely on my knowledge in various modalities such as ACT, CBT, and IFS from a Psychodynamic framework. Through exploring your lived experience and any challenges that you are facing, we can work to create a therapeutic relationship focused on living more authentically, meaningfully, and purposefully.

Navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma related issues is not easy. You have likely tried addressing these concerns alone, but you do not have to. It would be a privilege to support you on your journey of well-being. Recognizing the richness of insight varying therapies have to offer, I pride myself on integrating eclectic, and experiential therapies tailored to your person-centered needs. Integration of EMDR approaches are available upon request.
