Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Accepting clients Last Updated 26 days ago

Self-betterment is an investment that is aligned with self-love and positive reinforcement. Identifying the underlying issues is imperative to manage and increase your resilience against daily stressors effectively. My ultimate goal is to build a trusting client-therapist relationship that will promote change and positive psychotherapy outcomes.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of experience in providing psychotherapy for children, adolescents, adults, and families, treating life stressors such as, but not limited to, anxiety, behavioral problems, depression, and trauma. I truly believe in these words: “Walk with the wise and become wise.”

Are you experiencing depression, feeling overwhelmed, and having difficulty adjusting? It is time to make a change! As seasons change, so do we. Even at our lowest point, we can find the harvest using the right lens. Let me support you in regaining your ability to be productive and reach your optimal self.
