Hello and welcome!
I’m thrilled to be considered as part of your well-being journey. I’m a LCSW with over 4 years of experience providing therapy services and would be happy to support your therapy goals. Therapy can be effective and beneficial without being stuffy or overly clinical! As a proud neurodivergent provider, my strengths include lived experience with a mental health journey, a compassionate and flexible approach, genuine interest in connection with my clients, warmth, and a sense of humor. I hope clients feel safe and comfortable to be themselves or are encouraged to grow this comfort as we engage in sessions together. I ask often for consent and permission to discuss various topics, with a priority on clients being in charge of what they are ready for and open to discuss. I frequently check-in to see how the session is feeling and what may be needed to support comfort and a feeling of safety in session.
I’m passionate about the benefits of therapy and the positive difference a caring relationship with a therapist can bring. The most important part of my clinical approach is to build a foundation of respect, safety, gentleness and communication. We can work together to support your goals and learn new skills.
