Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
You deserve to thrive. Whether you're struggling in relationships, with self-doubt, or feeling stuck, therapy can help.
Many of the people I work with worry that they don’t think or feel the way they should, or that they are just somehow flawed. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who can (gently!) help them explore those painful ideas outside their comfort zones. I don’t just sit and listen – I am curious, engaged, and active. I’m here to partner with you by asking questions, offering feedback, and looking at old patterns from new perspectives. Therapy is a place where you can practice being the full you, safely trying out ideas and feelings you haven’t always welcomed or have been reluctant to look at. We’ll examine how past experiences and relationships might inform the way you operate today, identify the strengths and resources you already have, and talk about how to use them to live and relate in ways that are authentic and meaningful to you. I’m a therapist who is in therapy and a would-be cat lady who is allergic to cats. I believe that our complexities and contradictions are what make us most lovable and relatable, and I can’t wait to get to know about yours.
