About me
I am a clinical social worker specializing in female empowerment and friendship dynamics, and working with actors and other performing artists.
Clients often begin therapy from an overwhelmed, entangled headspace, knowing innately there’s something they would like to work towards, but feeling uncertain of what that journey may look like. I strive to join you where you’re at, providing a safe, non-judgmental space to be heard. We will work together to uncover insights and gain clarity, drawing upon your own unique strengths, capabilities, and sense of self. My approach is eclectic and collaborative, beginning with your goals and hopes for treatment, and incorporating creative methods to work together in this pursuit. Our sessions are tailored to best suit your unique needs.
Integrating elements of IFS, CBT, psychodynamic, and mindfulness practices, I aim to facilitate a process with three distinct objectives: identifying and reframing negative thought patterns, developing a stronger awareness of self, and bolstering autonomy and ability in developing the skills necessary to accomplish desired goals and find wellbeing.
I specialize in issues of gender and sexuality, with a focus on female dynamics, empowerment, and wellbeing. Additionally, I hold a BFA in Drama and enjoy working with performing artists around the unique challenges of the field. I am an LGBTQ+ affirming, sex-positive, and body-positive clinician.
