My clients describe me as genuine, straightforward, and committed to understanding their needs. They appreciate my ability to communicate openly and honestly, helping us build strong, trusting relationships. I listen closely, ask questions that help you make sense of what you’re experiencing, and offer support without judgment.

As a former attorney with 15 years of legal experience, I have observed the connections between trauma, addiction, mental health issues, and the legal system. This insight inspired me to transition into clinical social work, where I am committed to helping individuals heal, find stability, and embrace a hopeful future.

I support adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, or co-occurring concerns, including bipolar disorder and psychosis. I’ll listen to what you’ve experienced and what matters most to you. We'll build on your strengths, choose goals that feel meaningful, and identify practical steps toward greater well-being and a more fulfilling life.
