Are you a college student struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues? Are you a therapist or healthcare provider seeking support to navigate the effects of trauma? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW-R) and Credentialed Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Counselor (CASAC), I specialize in providing compassionate counseling services to young adults, professionals, and individuals experiencing the effects of trauma. My practice is designed specifically to support college students in navigating the unique challenges they face during this transitional time in their lives. I also work closely with therapists and healthcare providers to support their well-being and help them develop effective coping strategies. With extensive experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, and childhood trauma, I provide trauma-informed care to help you overcome obstacles and achieve your goals. With a warm and non-judgmental approach, I provide individualized care to help you build resilience, cultivate self-awareness, and thrive both academically and personally. No matter where you are on your journey, as a student, new to your field, or a seasoned professional struggling with the various aspects of life, I am here to help. Let's work together to create a brighter future for you.
