Warm and compassionate Licensed Master Social Worker providing counseling services to children and adults. Areas of competence include: Trauma informed care to survivors of child sexual abuse, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual violence, Substance Use Disorder, gender and sexuality identity, mood issues, anxiety and depression, and self-esteem, and overall health and wellness.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, which means I am trained to work with individuals, couples, and families from a systemic perspective. I believe that our relationships with loved ones, community, and society have a strong influence on our mental health and should be considered in treatment. These systems shape our world and working on how to change toxic family dynamics or navigate prejudice in the workplace, for example, will have a big impact on your wellbeing.

I am here to create a healing, supportive space for you to reach your goals. Whatever life stressors you are experiencing in this moment is the perfect place to start. Personal transformation is a journey that begins within and effects change in our immediate environment. Supportive processing and practical skill building give you the tools you need to live the most fulfilling life possible; the life you truly deserve.

Warm, welcoming Licensed Professional Counselor providing individual counseling services to adults looking to address a wide range of concerns. I aim to impart a sense of safety, support, and feeling truly heard, while assisting clients with identifying and reaching personal goals around change and growth.

Therapy is about investing in yourself and trying to achieve your authentic self. My aim is to end the stigma of mental and emotional health and make it a priority. We are not just treating “mental health” we are treating trauma responses, coping mechanisms, and subconscious programming. I want you to feel heard, understood, loved, and accepted.

I am a Licensed Psychology Associate (DC) and Licensed Graduate Professional Counselor (MD) specializing in working with children and families, primarily in the school setting. My preferred theoretical orientation is person-centered or child-centered, which means that I believe that each child and each family is unique, and that therapy should be tailored as such.
