I am an experienced and compassionate clinician with a passion for helping others overcome the obstacles and challenges trauma, anxiety, and depression present in their lives.
I have practiced as a clinician since 2014. I came to this field with a desire to pay forward the support that I was given from mental health professionals. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have experiences working with adults struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, issues with self-worth and trauma. I have also worked with adolescents struggling with body image, gender identify, and self-acceptance. I use a variety of evidenced-based interventions and practices to offer a variety of treatments to best meet the needs of people seeking help. I recognize and understand that reaching out and asking for help can be very uncomfortable, which is why I strive to provide a welcoming environment free from judgment. I believe in authenticity and being genuine with every person that seeks out help because. I work as a collaborator with clients in the therapeutic journey and recognize the value of working as a team. While I may be the professional and know how to conduct therapy, clients come with the knowledge and experience from their lives and hold crucial information to help them achieve their therapeutic goals. I am here to help each client take the knowledge and experience they have and learn how to apply it in ways that work for them. I believe life sometimes presents us with situations that we cannot manage on our own. I believe support, compassion, encouragement, and empathy from others cam make any situation more tolerable. I sought out this profession due to may desire to dedicate my life to supporting, helping, and encouraging others. Allow me the pleasure to help you.
