My style is collaborative and grounded in curiosity, compassion, and a deep respect for each person’s lived experience. I take a holistic and trauma-informed approach, integrating tools from psychodynamic therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing. At the heart of my work is a belief in your capacity to grow, heal, and reconnect with your strengths.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree from the University of Chicago. I have extensive experience in supporting teens, adults and older adults from a wide range of cultural and life backgrounds working through anxiety, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, grief, relationship difficulties, identity exploration, chronic illness, and more. Whether you’re navigating ongoing mental health concerns or simply looking to reconnect with yourself, I’ll meet you where you are and walk alongside you at your pace.

Therapy with me is a space to be seen, supported, and challenged in ways that help you move forward with more clarity, compassion, and confidence.
