(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
Do you feel anxious & stressed? Overwhelmed by daily life? Have you ever thought-is this all there is? I can help!
When you are feeling stuck, it can be hard to isolate what is causing it. You want to feel relief - you want to feel happy. Together we can focus in on the cause and collaborate to find solutions that will work for you. I am here to accompany you on your journey; to provide education, tools, and support to make life’s challenges a little less challenging. I don’t just sit back, I am actively involved in your growth, your success. My focus is to provide you with relief as quickly as possible. Individualized intervention that works! I started working in mental health over 30 years ago - it is my passion! I am a neurodivergent therapist who enjoys helping others on their path to finding their authentic self (& truly valuing that person). I have specialized training and experience in processing trauma and in coping with grief and loss. I use cutting edge interventions like CBT and others. Our first contact will be a chance for you to get a feel for how we click - to feel comfortable and confident that we can journey together. I will get to know you, the unique and individual parts. Within this safe and supportive relationship, we will bring forward your truest self.
