I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Your goals are of utmost importance, and understanding barriers that could be in the way is often the path to success. Issues such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, excessive worry, substance misuse, work-related stressors, and life transitions of every kind are the focus areas of my practice.

My therapist has lived experience, so she knows what she's talking about. She seems curious and approaches our discussion with kindness and has given me actual guidance, with suggestions of how I can work on my issues on my own between sessions too. Her method is already proving to be helpful and I feel like I click with her. I don't feel embarrassed about sharing things and I am beginning to feel lighter. I am so grateful
