My Therapeutic Style & Approach

I’m dedicated to helping foster emotional well-being and personal growth in the people I work with and strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings openly.  I am versed in working with children, adolescents, young adults and families who are experiencing an intersection of issues including depression, anxiety, ADHD, family conflict, and trauma.  Helping people recognize and replace maladaptive coping behaviors and negative self talk with healthier, non-judgmental practices is a crucial part of my practice.

Additionally, I am specialized in addressing the intersection between identities (race, gender, class, ethnicity) and mental health.  I incorporate my studies in psychology and women’s gender and sexuality into my work as a clinical social worker.  They allow me not only to see the person sitting in front of me as an individual but as part of a larger set of systems that have a direct impact on their lives and the lives of those they hold dear.

I understand what it is like to feel unmoored and anxious in a world that can sometimes seem daunting.  But it’s okay – you are stronger than you realize and are not alone.  Come in, and we’ll work through it together.
