Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or unsure about your next steps in life, please know you’re not alone. So many of us reach points where we feel stuck, stressed, or uncertain—and it’s okay to ask for help. Whether you’re hoping to feel more grounded and confident, or you’re just looking for relief from the daily pressure of it all, I’m here to walk with you through it, one step at a time.
My path to becoming a social worker wasn’t linear. I earned my undergraduate degree in film and, like many people, spent time exploring different careers—from organic farming to insurance—trying to find the right fit. Eventually, I discovered my passion in social work, and it’s been a privilege to support people of all backgrounds, especially teens and young adults with disabilities. I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree in social work, with the goal of becoming a licensed therapist. I love integrating creative tools like art, music, movement, and mindfulness with traditional therapy approaches to help clients connect with their strengths and grow through life’s challenges.
I know starting therapy can feel intimidating, but I want to create a space where you feel safe, supported, and truly heard. Whether we meet in person or online, I’m here to meet you where you are—emotionally and physically. If you’re thinking about taking that first step or just want to learn more, I’d be happy to connect with you. You don’t have to do this alone, and I’d be honored to be part of your journey.
