I am a compassionate and dedicated mental health professional with a strong commitment to supporting children, youth, teens, and young adults through a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. I bring a client-centered, trauma-focused approach that prioritizes safety, trust, and collaboration, helping individuals feel understood, empowered, and capable of meaningful change.
I have experience working with diverse populations facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, behavioral challenges, family conflict, identity exploration, self-esteem issues, academic or social stressors, and major life transitions. My work is grounded in an understanding of how developmental stages, family systems, culture, and environment influence mental health and overall well-being.
I am particularly passionate about working with children and adolescents, meeting them where they are and adapting interventions to be age-appropriate, engaging, and strengths-based. With teens and young adults, I focus on fostering insight, resilience, healthy coping skills, and self-advocacy as they navigate identity development, relationships, independence, and future planning.
My therapeutic style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative, while also being structured and goal-oriented. I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore difficult thoughts and emotions, build self-awareness, and develop practical tools for growth. I value ongoing learning, cultural humility, and ethical practice, and I am deeply motivated by the opportunity to support clients in building healthier, more fulfilling lives.

As a social worker, my focus will be on helping children who are facing various challenges in their lives. Whether it’s dealing with mental health issues, coping with trauma, or navigating difficult family dynamics, I am here to provide support and guidance.
I believe in taking a non-judgmental, compassionate approach to my work, and am dedicated to helping my clients reach their full potential. I am a patient listener, and will work closely with each client to understand their unique needs and goals.
With experience working with children of all ages and backgrounds, I am well-equipped to provide the support and resources necessary for each child to thrive. Whether you prefer online or in-person appointments, I am available to work with you and your child to create a plan that works for your schedule and needs
My Practice
As a parent, you want nothing more than for your child to be healthy, happy, and thriving, so it can be challenging to watch your child struggle with their emotions and behaviors. I believe that every child deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported. Through therapy, we can work together to create a positive and meaningful change in your child’s life.
