I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker working with a range of age groups and therapeutic needs. I chose social work because of its holistic approach considering the whole person: body, mind, and environmental systems lived when providing psychotherapy. Therapy with me is collaborative and non-judgmental using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Psychodynamic relational work (talk therapy) which support development of secure attachment behaviors, healing and desensitization of past traumas/PTSD, and development of a deeper connection to internal self-worth. All providing a foundation for lasting change.

I specialize in working with those needing help with the following (but not limited to): PTSD/Trauma, Sexuality, Sex, LGBTQ Experiences, Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Depression, Panic Attacks, Identity, Grief, Aging, Anger, Addiction, Attachment, and Interpersonal.
I’d like to help you feel better about your life, your relationships and, most importantly, about yourself. If you think you have interest to work with me please reach out and let's see if we are a good fit!
