I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.
My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.
Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
My therapy style is collaborative, compassionate, and client-centered. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I integrate evidence-based approaches with curiosity and flexibility, tailoring therapy to each person’s unique needs and goals. I value authenticity, practical tools, and meaningful insight to support lasting change.
Healing begins the moment you feel truly seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to meet you exactly where you are and walk alongside you as an active partner in your mental health journey.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) specializing in comprehensive, lifespan mental health care. My clinical approach blends rigorous scientific precision with a deeply empathetic, collaborative philosophy, ensuring you feel empowered rather than just a diagnosis.
Experienced across the entire lifespan, I treat children, adolescents, adults, and seniors (ages 4+). I provide evidence-based, specialized care for:
- ADHD Across the Lifespan: Supporting executive functioning and emotional regulation from childhood through adulthood.
- Anxiety & Depressive Disorders: Managing generalized anxiety, panic, and major depression.
- Mood & Psychotic Disorders: Utilizing modern clinical strategies for Bipolar disorder and complex mood shifts.
- Complex Presentations: Providing sensitive care for eating disorders, trauma histories, and personality-related behavior patterns.
Outside of psychiatry, I am an avid traveler and a passionate gardener. Tending to my roses daily is my favorite way to practice mindfulness and decompress, ensuring I return to my patients with a refreshed mind and renewed energy.
Together, we will explore your life experiences, childhood, relationships, attachment patterns, identity, values, and parenting beliefs to better understand how they influence your current challenges and strengths. I work best with children, teens, women, parents, and families navigating life's transitions.
I have personal and professional experience with family conflict, divorce, parenting challenges, teen parenting, grief and loss, relationship concerns, and the complexities of balancing family, work, and everyday life. I understand the desire for peace, joy, and healthy relationships when they can feel just out of reach.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where healing, growth, and meaningful change can occur.

Whether you’re struggling with routines, boundaries, relationships or feeling stuck about your next steps, I offer compassionate, practical support tailored to your life.
