I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing via teletherapy. I work with clients ages 10+ struggling with everything from mild anxiety and depression, to life transitions, or a desire to change habits that are no longer serving them. My work relies on evidenced-based treatments rooted in cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness therapies. My goal is to create a safe space to explore how your journey has shaped you and offer opportunities for growth where you might feel stuck.
I believe we adapt to our circumstances in the best way we know how in the moment, and a result of that we develop unhelpful coping habits and lean away from our true selves. With a supportive and therapeutic environment, we will work to uncover your natural resilience and individual strengths that will guide you back to your authentic self.
At the core of all of us, there is a desire to be seen and heard in our unique experience. Therapy can be a space to be curious about ourselves and how our experiences have shaped our current thinking, feelings and interactions with the world. If you're interested in exploring your journey, I would be honored to be a guide on your healing journey.

I utilize a third-party billing system to accept most insurances. If you would like to utilize out-of-network benefits, I can also provide a superbill. It is my belief that finances should never get in the way of accessing the care you need and working with the right provider.

I often use mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy in my practice. In our time together, we'll explore your goals for therapy and decide on the most appropriate ways to heal and grow. I often utilize experiential mindfulness exercises in our time together and offer skills or exercises that can be practiced outside of our time together as well.
