As a Licensed Social Worker, I value the connection between human rights, identity, social justice, and mental health. I’ve spent the last 6 years working in mental health and addiction settings with survivors of human trafficking and domestic violence, Veterans, and LGBTQIA+ communities. I enjoy working with people who are motivated and curious about trying a new way of thinking.
My clinical experience supports individuals who are working through Complex PTSD, substance or process addictions, anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, self-esteem development, and interpersonal relationships. My clinical work with children and adolescents ages 6 and up includes emotional regulation strategies, communication and coping skill development, along with work to build self-esteem and confidence.
I will guide you through the practice of self-advocacy and self-affirmation as you work toward the goals you set for yourself. During our time together, I will draw on aspects of different frameworks to best help you. Some examples include Dialectical and Cognitive Therapy (to develop and grow mindfulness and coping skills), Narrative Therapy (to gain perspective), and Relational Life Therapy (to foster honesty, accountability, and connection).
If this approach feels like a good fit for you, I invite you to reach out to schedule a session, either in person or online via our HIPAA-compliant video platform. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you on your journey!
