I believe therapy begins with connection. I strive to create a warm, genuine, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard, and accepted for who you are. I see therapy as a collaborative process where we can make sense of your experiences, recognize the strengths you already carry, and explore what healing and meaningful change can look like for you. I earned my Master of Social Work with a clinical concentration from Virginia Commonwealth University and am a Supervisee in Clinical Social Work. I am also a Certified Substance Abuse Counselor (CSAC) and Qualified Mental Health Professional (QMHP).

My clinical experience includes supporting individuals navigating trauma, mental health concerns, substance use, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My approach is person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I recognize that our experiences and environments shape how we understand ourselves and move through the world. I work alongside each client to build trust, honor their unique needs, and create space for healing at a pace that feels right for them.

Outside of the therapy room, you can often find me tending to my plants, creating art, or enjoying live music. I believe making space for joy, creativity, connection, and meaning can be an important part of healing and well-being. Together, we can honor where you have been, nurture where you are, and work toward a life where you are not only surviving, but thriving.
