Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Certifications and/or training: Certified Advanced Grief Counseling Specialist
Does life feel overwhelming, stressful, or uncertain? Do you feel hopeless or helpless? Have you experienced a loss and need a helping hand to guide you through it? The past few years have brought changes, losses, and traumas to us all- both individual and collective. Through my own experiences with loss, I know that your world is forever changed. Grief is complicated and, unfortunately, it doesn’t follow a linear path. Loss is a universal human experience, and it will touch each of us over the course of life. Though, we cannot go back to a time before a loss, we can move forward to a place of peace and healing.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am here to help. In addition to grief and loss, I have experience treating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships and family conflicts, and life transitions. I have worked with a wide variety of individuals and groups, adults and adolescents. My background in Women’s/Gender Studies informs my work as a therapist and I approach my clients with an open mind and an open heart.
I truly believe that the relationship between the client and the therapist is paramount to creating lasting growth and change in therapy. I provide a space where you can feel safe exploring any issues without judgment. I incorporate a variety of different techniques and modalities to form a holistic treatment plan. Most importantly, I will meet you where you are and follow your lead. We will work together to help you navigate challenges and live your best life.
