About me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in helping adults navigate and overcome depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship challenges, trauma, and addiction. At Elevate Mental Health, I provide a supportive environment where you can address these concerns and cultivate a life of greater well-being.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, lacking motivation, or facing challenges in your relationships? Struggling with job burnout, family issues, or feeling emotionally drained? Perhaps you feel lost or trapped. I believe in a holistic approach to mental well-being, focusing on your unique needs and empowering you to create a fulfilling life. My integrative approach draws from various therapeutic modalities, such as solution-focused, psychodynamic, narrative, person-centered, interpersonal, attachment-based, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed, and cognitive-behavioral therapies. I have a deep understanding of mental health challenges and am committed to helping you find your strength, motivation, and empowerment to achieve your personal goals.
I prioritize your unique needs and tailor therapy to your current situation. Together, we'll create a personalized plan to empower you and guide you towards success. I believe in the transformative power of therapy and encourage you to take this journey towards a more fulfilling life. I offer a safe and inclusive space with the convenience of virtual appointments. Let's start this journey together. Contact me for a free consultation to discuss your specific needs and how therapy can help.
