Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW-C
Last Updated 30+ days ago

I have several years of experience doing telemental health an am currently offering full time online sessions in response to Covid 19. My hours are flexible in response to the crisis.

When you come to see me as a client, you too, have a story to share, a need to be heard, and a space where you can reconnect with your inner resourcefulness. Your narrative is uncovered and cultivated, as together in therapy, we tackle together the stressors that arise from school, family, and social challenges, Together we will work toward recognizing your own power to reshape your narrative from a new perspective. When anxiety and depression blocks growth, stifles creative problem solving, and life seems overwhelming; it can feel like we are adrift, without mooring. With a supportive, strengths based guide by your side, new possibilities and solutions emerge to problems that once seemed insurmountable. Through our therapeutic relationship, I strive to help you connect more deeply to yourself, others, and to the meaning you wish to make for your life. I want you to be able to tell your story that others will hear.

​When you seek therapy, you made the first step to move toward strength and healing!
