I am a licensed therapist with a Masters in Social Work. My degree has given me the fundamentals necessary to embark on the journey of becoming a licensed mental health therapist. It has helped me learn to identify what people think and how they react to different situations. It also helped me to recognize the appropriate way of dealing with people and helping them without making them feel uncomfortable. Making sure my client’s understand their own problems properly while involving them in preparation for a plan of action is a goal I as a therapist strive for.

My primary goal in therapy is to make a space where you do not have to be “on.” Instead, you can feel at ease to share your pain, stress, and struggles with authenticity. I'm intentional about providing an experience that starts with a trusting, hopeful relationship and is tailored to your unique relationships and experiences. Having this type of safe and secure relationship is a launching pad to healing and flourishing in therapy and beyond. From there, we work together to create a plan to move toward the envisioned change that led you to take the vulnerable jump Into therapy.

You feel anxious and it’s hard to shut your brain off. People tell you to relax, but it’s not that easy. Your life is going well, but there’s always a new worry on the horizon. You’ve worked hard to get where you are, but it’s hard to sit back and enjoy it. Your standards for yourself feel too high. You tend to doubt yourself and your abilities and look to other people to reassure you. You invest a lot of time and energy into how other people feel, but end up in one-sided relationships. It’s hard to take up space, feel confident, and speak your truth. I can help anxious overachievers rest, relax, and find balance in their lives.

As your therapist, we will process anxiety, depression, past traumas, reroute negative behaviors, & learn how lived experiences impact the way you view the world currently.
