Have you been feeling not yourself, like you’re falling short of your life goals, like your feelings are too big to manage, or unsatisfied in your relationships with others? Are you anxious, experiencing emotional pain, unsure of yourself and your abilities, struggling to cope with life changes, or all the above and more? You don’t have to continue to suffer alone. I’m here to help! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with teens, adults, and families facing a variety of challenges, including relational issues, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, life adjustments, and self-esteem.
I will help you explore how your relationships may be helping or hurting your mental health and work with you to recognize and repair harmful communication patterns to help you build stronger, healthier relationships. We will work together to discover your strengths and to use them to help you heal. I will empower you to live a life of meaning.
I understand the vulnerability it takes to do the work of healing, and it's an honor and a privilege to partner with you as you make changes towards living a healthier and more meaningful life . Are you ready to take the next steps? Let’s do it together! Still usure? Contact me to schedule a free consultation to figure out whether I’m the right fit for you.
