Explore. Equip. Empower.

I believe that we all have the ability to live the worthy and abundant life destined to us. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about empowering individuals to shift their mindset, practice new habits, and create a healthy and whole life. I am specifically passionate about working with women that are seeking identity, wholeness, and empowerment.

My approach is eclectic, including mindfulness, psychodynamic, and  techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and Motivational Interviewing.

I strive to provide a warm, compassionate, and authentic space to assist you in your healing. We will explore your past and present patterns of thoughts, feelings, and actions; I will help equip you with tools to unlearn and shift those patterns; and you will feel empowered to live your best life! Let’s connect and start the process today!

As a Therapist, Writer, and Divine Creator, prioritizing mental wellness and wholeness also expands beyond the therapy couch! I come alive when schools, churches, organizations, and fellow creatives align with the mission to provide awareness, educate with compassion, and hold spaces for others to feel seen and heard.
