About Me:

​

I’m passionate about helping children, adolescents, teens, and adults navigate life’s challenges with warmth, compassion, and a practical approach. My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, ADHD, grief, and behavioral concerns. Every person’s journey is unique, and therapy should reflect that, offering a supportive space to build resilience, self-awareness, and coping skills.

I believe therapy should feel like a conversation, not a checklist. Sessions are tailored to each client, using evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), along with a flexible, person-centered approach. I also work closely with families, helping caregivers navigate difficult dynamics and strengthen relationships. My style is warm but direct, supportive but goal-oriented, ensuring that clients feel both heard and empowered.

As a Licensed Certified Social Worker-Clinical (LCSW-C) in Maryland, I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Social Work from Salisbury University. I stay committed to ongoing learning, regularly engaging in training and professional development to provide the best care for my clients.

Creating an inclusive, affirming space is a priority. I am queer-affirming and experienced in working with diverse backgrounds, identities, and family structures. Every client deserves to feel understood and respected. Whether supporting a child struggling in school, a teen working through big emotions, or an adult facing life’s stressors, my goal is to help each person move toward meaningful, lasting change.
